You left me here with ghosts The only holy things I know Some untraceable line of feeling An apparition apparently appealing “Be gone now!” I decree It's shocking they're obeying me I know only a child believes in ghosts But I'm the oldest kid I know There's no doubt it's time to make some new plans So reach out and touch someone's hand A tangled mind retires And truth comes raging through the brier And I finally view with some clarity The unseemly thing that's been k**ing me I tend to underplay
I wasn't happy anyway Just think I'd never been a bigger liar Than when you were lying next to me There's no doubt it's time to make some new plans So reach out and touch someone's hand Someone's hands are on my back And I can feel more love than I can stand Until I let some blood, until love is all I am There's no doubt it's time to make some new plans So reach out and touch someone's hand There's no doubt it's time to make some new plans So reach out and touch someone's hand
