When We Were in Love cover
04. Holy Ghost
Album: When We Were in Love
Artist: Mike Mains & The Branches
         
 

I wanna be closer than the Holy Ghost

Sunshine, she's lighting up the summertime
She's sweeter than cherry wine
I'm working hard for her to notice
Hard for her to notice
Sunshine, baby, don't you wanna roll the dice
Come try my lovin' on for size
I've got a hunger only you can satisfy

It's such a drag
And it's such a drag
And it's such a drag
And it's wearing me out
It's wearing me out, ooh

I wanna be closer than the holy
I wanna be closer than the Holy Ghost
I wanna be closer than the holy
I wanna be closer than the Holy Ghost

Hot night, I think she hit the bullseye
Now my heart is paralyzed
And I'm tripping on my tongue
I'm tripping, 'cause I'm tongue-tied
Hot night, it must have been the moonlight
Guess she thought the time was right
To watch me smash into the sidewalk like a stone

It's such a drag
And it's such a drag
And it's such a drag
And it's wearing me out
Wearing me out, ooh

I wanna be closer than the holy
I wanna be closer than the Holy Ghost
I wanna be closer than the holy
I wanna be closer than the Holy Ghost

She's got diamonds in her heart
I'm on my knees, dig, dig, digging
Heaven in her arms
Oh, I try but I can't get inside
I can't seem to find her love
Her love, oh

Yeah

I wanna be closer than the holy
I wanna be closer than the Holy Ghost
I got a sentimental heart, reaching for the phone
I wanna be closer than the holy
I wanna be closer than the Holy Ghost
I got a sentimental heart, reaching for the phone

I wanna be closer than the holy
I wanna be closer than the Holy Ghost
I got a sentimental heart, reaching for the phone
I wanna be closer than the holy
I wanna be closer than the Holy Ghost
I got a sentimental heart, reaching for the phone
