lyrics

there is a ghost in this place, and i am sure of it
it comes in from the cold and opens all my cabinets
it lives in the bones of the house, in the attic
where my hair growed long and my skin was like wax

and i had a dream that we were cleansed
in a while brother sun brought me back to my first sense
white shimmering light willow branches on the window
i heard it all again on the sweet caravan to hillsborough

it was march or maybe april we still had the spirit then
and i had me a shirt spun out of beautiful white linen
and now i work the mornings on the federal hill road
and i tell you, there ain't nothing but the fever left to sow, so

come down charlie, I won't do you no harm
it's just the wind in the branches on the tabernacle farm
where we used to sit and watch the shadow dance behind the door
there is a bad wind now, and you don't come around no more

when you come back home we won't blame you
crowded in the wings we are waiting for you
when you come back home we won't blame you
crowded in the wings we are waiting for you
