We saw a ghost inside our house 
Or was it wishful thinking 
Oh god, don't leave us by ourselves 
Or we're bound to take up drinking 

Please send us a miracle 
So I know that there is meaning 
Except I think that it's a miracle 
Just to be breathing 

So live on 
Baby live on 
Live on 
Baby live on 

Packed up my clothes 
In a grocery bag 
I'm going to find the creator 

An old man in the clouds 
Or a happy little alien 
Whoever it is 
I need to thank her 

And even though I don't know god 
I'm happy with the mystery 
And I'm certain that I feel it 
Every time that you sing to me 

In songs 
Life is like a song 
It's a song 
A humble song 

I watched you sleeping until five am 
Cause I want to be part of your dreaming 
Oh love, don't leave me by myself 
Or I'm bound to lose my meaning 

We'll start a little family 
And call it our religion 
Hunt for ghosts inside our house 
Because we'll never give up wishing 

That we live on 
Baby live on 
In our song 
A humble song
