MARCUS HUMMON
STUART ADAMSON
I took my past out for a ride
Along the north sea
All my demons in the back seat
Crying out for me, time to pay the piper
Time to call in a marker, time to cough it up
The last thing on my mind
Was another shot at love
CHORUS:
Too many ghosts
One too many ghosts to fall in love
Avarice, drunkenness, pride, and infidelity
I dropped them off at a bus stop
Along the coast
You came out of nowhere
Sat right up next to me, looking like a virgin
Unconfirmed, waiting for the host
But there ain't no virgins here,
No novices, no innocence
Just the dark desire for forgiveness
REPEAT CHORUS
I took my new love out for a ride
Along the north sea
Forgiveness or forgetfulness
It's all the same to me
As i look into her eyes
And press her in my arms
I look over her shoulder,
Back to where my demons are
