Intro: --


Verse 1:
               
  I turn out the light
                
  And lay here in wait
                 
with half-closed eyes
                
You would scare most
with your presence
             
  It's your complexion if
that's what it's called
           
  Opaque and white
                 
  You float in the doorway
             
float in the night
               
Your hands are ice
I would bet on it
                 
  The room gets so cold
after you come around


Refrain:

  I am ever waiting
you are out there wailing


Chorus 1:
                            
Love please come and haunt me always
                                
 
I'll let you come and take me on
                             
Love come taunt me through the whole night
                                
 
I need to, need to feel your soul


Verse 2:
                
  Can I see you tonight?
                  
  You leave with a start
               
when I open my eyes
           
You get so shy if
I look at you
                 
  Why come back to me if you
won't let me see you
             
  Don't make a sound
              
  If I close my eyes
                 
when you're not around
                
I hear the same haunting melody
             
  I know it by heart your banshee song


(Repeat Refrain and Chorus 1)
