about

Inspired, after a Glen Hansard gig, this song was written. Golden Ghost can be your worst and best.
It paints the picture of a young man and the superstition that surrounds him.

lyrics

Cloudy days & stormy nights
All alone without a light
Understanding I am lost
Up in the sky the golden ghost

Walking footsteps my own path
Making changes hope I last
Then I see the light ahead
Golden ghost wants me dead
Golden ghost wants me dead

Walk away & you are safe
Catch the comb is your fate
Call your family all the most
Up in the sky the golden ghost

Love your children say goodnight
Never know when it’s your last time
Watch your back the most
In the sky the golden ghost

Then I see the light ahead
Golden ghost wants me dead
Golden ghost wants me dead

I see you in the night
Not pretending
