Haunted Heart

You wake in the morning with your ghosts running cold
They whisper all the dirty little secrets they´ve been told
You look at me sleeping so peacefully
And imagine I`m dreaming about some other pretty baby

Sometimes I gotta wonder why I even try
When you think in every word is the shadow of a lie
Hey babe how you get such a suspicious mind
You know the devil`s always looking for his own kind

And I call on spirits blowing the storms in your sea
Give us peace come on and let us be
Exorcise the ghosts from your haunted heart
Before they curse our love before they tear, before they tear us apart

You look for little clues that might add up to a crime
You check my collar for lipstick if I`m not home on time
I got to watch how friendly I get with your girl friends
Tell me when are all your haunted thoughts gonna end

Babe if you and I are gonna make it intact
Then you gotta loosen up a bit yeah that`s a fact
Cause it`s no fun always being under your suspicious eye
I know I`m no angel but you gotta admit I try
