Lyrics

And I had a dream
About my old school
And she was there all pink and gold and glittering
I threw my arms around her legs
Came to weeping
(Came to Weeping)

And I heard your voice
As clear as day
And you told me I should concentrate
It was all so strange
And so surreal
That a ghost should be so practical

Only if for a night
And the only solution was to stand and fight
And my body was bruised and I was set alight
But she came over me like some holy rite
And although I was burning, you're the only light
Only if for a night

And the grass was so green against my new clothes
And I did cartwheels in your honour
Dancing on tiptoes
My own secret ceremonial
Before the service began
In the graveyard doing handstands

And I heard your voice
As clear as day
And you told me I should concentrate
It was all so strange
And so surreal
That a ghost should be so practical

Only if for a night
And the only solution was to stand and fight
And my body was bruised and I was set alight
But she came over me like some holy rite
And although I was burning, you're the only light
Only if for a night

My doll, my dear, my darling
Tell me what all this sayings about
Tell me what all this sayings about

And I heard your voice
As clear as day
And you told me I should concentrate
It was all so strange
And so surreal
That a ghost should be so practical
Only if for a night
Yeah yeahy yeah - Yeah yeahy yeah
Only if for a night
Yeah yeahy yeah - Yeah yeahy yeah
Only if for a night
Yeah yeahy yeah - Yeah yeahy yeah
Only if for a night
Yeah yeahy yeah - Yeah yeahy yeah
Only if for a night
Yeah yeahy yeah - Yeah yeahy yeah
Only if for a night
Yeah yeahy yeah - Yeah yeahy yeah
Only if for a night
Yeah yeahy yeah - Yeah yeahy yeah
Only if for a night
Yeah yeahy yeah - Yeah yeahy yeah
Only if for a niiiight
Ooohhhhh
