Ghost of a Good Thing

Dashboard Confessional

I guess it’s luck, but it’s the same 
Hard luck, you’ve been trying to tame 
Maybe it’s love, but it’s like you said 
“Love is like a role that we play.” 

But, I believe in you so much 
I could die for the words that you say 
But, I believe in you so much 
I could die from the words that you say 

But, you’re chasin’ the ghost of a good thing 
Haunting yourself as the real thing 
It’s getting away from you again 
While you’re chasin’ ghosts 

I guess it’s luck, but it’s the same
Hard luck, you’ve been trying to tame 
Maybe it’s love, but it’s like you said 
“Love is like a role that we play.” 

But, I believe in you so much 
I could die for the words that you say 
But, I believe in you so much 
I could die from the words that you say 

But, you’re chasin’ the ghost of a good thing 
Haunting yourself as the real thing 
It’s getting away from you again 
While you’re chasin’ ghosts 

Just bend the pieces ‘till they fit 
Like they were made for it 
But, they weren’t meant for this 
No, they weren’t meant for this 

Just bend the pieces ‘till they fit 
Like they were made for it 
But, they weren’t meant for this 

Chasin’ the ghost of a good thing 
Haunting yourself as the real thing
It’s getting away, away, away, away from you again

Chasin’ the ghost of a good thing
Haunting yourself as the real thing
It’s getting away from you again
While you’re chasin’ ghosts
