Prefab Sprout - A Prisoner Of The Past

I'm a ghost to you now, I'm someone you don't really wish to see

I'm a ghost to you now, a shadow since you turned your back on me

Maybe you'll learn why it was I shook

Baby your turn to wear the haunted look

This ghost is here to stay

I survived the blast

Get Ready, get ready to pay

I'm taking you at last -

A prisoner of the past

This ghost is here to stay

He survived the blast

Get ready, get ready to say

"I've found my niche at last -

A prisoner of the past"

Anywhere that you go, I'm going to be the welcome there for you

Everywhere that you go - be certain that the table's set for two !

Maybe you'll learn - there's nowhere you can go

Baby you'll turn - as white, as white as snow

This ghost is here to stay

I survived the blast

Get Ready, get ready to pay

I'm taking you at last -

A prisoner of the past

This ghost is here to stay

He survived the blast

Get ready, get ready to say

"I've found my niche at last -

A prisoner of the past"

This ghost is here to stay

I survived the blast

Get Ready, get ready to pay

I'm taking you at last -

A prisoner of the past
