And I had a dream About my old school And she was there All pink and gold and glittering I threw my arms around her legs Came to weeping, came to weeping And I heard your voice as clear as day And you told me I should concentrate It was all so strange and it's so surreal That a ghost should be so practical Only if for a night And the only solution was to stand and fight And my body was bruised and I was set alight But you came over me like some holy rite And although I was burning You're the only light Only if for a night The grass was so green Against my new clothes And I did cartwheels in your honour Dancing on tiptoes My own secret ceremonials Before the service began In the graveyard, doing handstands And I heard your voice as clear as day And you told me I should concentrate It was all so strange and it's so surreal That a ghost should be so practical Only if for a night And the only solution was to stand and fight And my body was bruised and I was set alight But you came over me like some holy rite And although I was burning You're the only light Only if for a night Madam, my dear, my darling Tell me what are all this sighing's about Tell me what are all this sighing's about And I heard your voice as clear as day And you told me I should concentrate It was all so strange and it's so surreal That a ghost should be so practical Only if for a night Only if for a night Only if for a night Only if for a night Only if for a night Only if for a night Only if for a night Only if for a night
