THE GHOST IN YOU You awoke in a burning paperhouse From the infinite fields Of dreamless sleep You return to Tiannammen An eyewitness in a shroud To see them fall, feel them yield Reliving the terror of the crowd Hold the whirlwind, don't let it blow Just for a moment I seemed to know Hold the whirlwind, don't let it blow I seemed to know the ghost in you The whisper of your scream Sighed through the air And faith-the flag is torn and frayed Inferno heat, glory in flame love was beaten and betrayed In every step I hear your sobbing Dare I break the shade with one caress? Dare I trespass to lift the veil To touch the lips so soft and frail? Hold the whirlwind, don't let it blow I seemed to know the ghost in you Your captive heart, the belief you share With a kiss eternal, the spirits of the square Hold the whirlwind, don't let it blow Hope remains with the ghost in you Hold the whirlwind, don't let it blow I seemed to know the ghost in you Don't let it blow The ghost in you The ghost in you
