Chester Arthur was the president
But no one remembers him
What about you?
He served a term with no vice president
And no one resident
To tell him what to do
He came to office by a bullet's grace
Garfield lost his place
And Arthur took…
not really a ghost in my house it just badly needs rewiring.
There’s a ghost in my house
That we can’t see
Moving things around
When we’re not here
Playing little tricks
On my memory
Playing little games
With my mind
There…
I'd only heard the various live versions, where I was concentrating on the performance etc... on this one I noticed what an excellent song it is as well!
Love the dual vocal.

this later became a jemima's kite song but this is the bare bones of the song before mike and tim added to it.
Just there
Not here
Just there
So close
So far
So near
So where you are
You take it as you find it
You see it as it is
You’re right…

Floppy old mix. Another candidate for remixing or (at least) re-mastering. I'll probably do the latter soon.
This is a synthesizer instrumental…

For some reason the song does not play here, but since I already know it from Songcrafters I can honestly tell you: It IS a gem, like Bethan says. And, of course, I downloaded it to my MP3 player.
Thanks for sharing, Tharek. And sorry for your loss.

New one from me. It's ended up as a bit of a "crying into yer beer at Bob's Country Bunker" sort of song lol...
I've been sat on these lyrics in some form or another for absolutely years. I first wrote them one very dark night a few years after…

I'd favourited it after the first line! Luckily the rest of it lived up to it... Groove, over all sound, vocal, backing vox, everything. I love it...
Can't tell you enough how much I love this song.
This feels like the soundtrack to "Buck Rogers in the 21st century" re-imagined by Ronald D. Moore. Kudos.
Excellent! Really like the idea behind this. Nice tune, well performed.
I'd only heard the various live versions, where I was concentrating on the performance etc... on this one I noticed what an excellent song it is as well! Love the dual vocal.
the juno di is dave , you know my body bpm couldnt do that.
Fantastic lyrics. Vocals almost sound like Richard Harris with dynamic emotion..
who is playing those drums?
I like this. The earthy vocals almost seem in contrast to the backing but they wok well together.
Hey there buddy.....welcome over here......or was that there......I am not sure where the hell I am..........how the hell did I not hear this song before? freaky. Great stuff.
Very lush, Steffen. Where's the jacuzzi and the glass of champagne? Enjoyed the listen.
