Verse 1
Bare feet on the dock boards, lake water lapping at the shore
Ghostlight flickering off the pines where we used to dance before
The old boat's tied up now, paint chipped but still so bright
You take my hand and pull me in, into the silver light
Pre-Chorus
Can you see it too, or am I just making this up?
Is this a ghost of us or something we can touch?
Chorus
Ghostlight on the lake tonight, dancing under stars that shine so bright
We're catching every chance before we let it slip away in time
Ghostlight on the lake tonight, chasing down the light, losing track of time
Verse 2
Your mom's old Polaroids stuck to a bottle with the years we turned
The same smell of your cologne and gasoline that still burns
We used to lie across the engine block and watch the sunset fade
Now I'm standing here where the horizon stretches wide and gray
Pre-Chorus
Can you see it too, or am I just making this up?
Is this a ghost of us or something we can touch?
Chorus
Ghostlight on the lake tonight, dancing under stars that shine so bright
We're catching every chance before we let it slip away in time
Ghostlight on the lake tonight, chasing down the light, losing track of time
Bridge
Maybe it's just a feeling
Or maybe I'm not leaving
Either way, I'll hold this close and let the truth unwind
This is where our ghosts come home
Chorus
Ghostlight on the lake tonight, dancing under stars that shine so bright
We're catching every chance before we let it slip away in time
Ghostlight on the lake tonight, chasing down the light, losing track of time
