Gabrielle Aplin - Ghosts Lyrics






[Verse 1]
I'm sick and tired of hanging out my window,
I've learnt from past experience rain can't make flowers grow,
And friends don't stick around,
They go which way the wind blows,
You're never safe and sound, 'til all the doors are closed.

[Pre-chorus]
Doors closed,
Doors closed,

[Chorus]
When you're awake and your own shadows turn into ghosts.
[x2]

Ahh, oh.

[Verse 2]
Soon it will all fall apart,
And their roads will have no way,
And you'll be the one laughing,
As their fences fade away,
And instead of being left there, feeling all alone,
Break down the house you made of match sticks,
And set fire to their throne.

[Pre-chorus]
To the throne,
To the throne,

[Chorus]
When you're awake and your own shadows turn into ghosts.
[x2]

[Bridge]
Home becomes what you're scared of the most.
Home becomes what you're scared of the most.
When shadows turn into ghosts,
It's what you're scared of the most.

[Instrumental]

I'm pulling pictures off the wall watching smiles as they fall,
I'm pulling pictures off the wall watching smiles as they fall,
I'm pulling pictures off the wall watching smiles as they fall,
I'm pulling pictures off the wall,
I'm pulling pictures off the wall watching smiles as they fall.

When you're awake and your own shadows turn into ghosts.
When you're awake and your own shadows turn into ghosts.

Home becomes what you're scared of the most.
Home becomes what you're scared of the most.
When shadows turn into ghosts,
It's what you're scared of the most.

Gabrielle Aplin Ghosts Comments
  1. f.... ....

    I sang this song for a talent show in high school. Gonna listen to it on repeat for a while now...

  2. B.... L....

    I talked to Gabrielle Aplin right before she became famous and got a contract. She is a very sweet and innocent soul to the core. She never puts anyone down in a bad way and never fails to explain herself in her music. She is a prize when it comes to the spiritual world.

  3. N.... R....

    ❤️🤘🏻❤️

  4. H.... C....

    2018 and forever...

  5. N.... P....

    Her songs are so simple,yet so elegant.
    Not too many instruments,not too jumpy and no non sense..
    As opposed to the pop,hip hop cRAP of Taylor Swift, Bieber, Sheeran and nearly all rappers..

  6. Y.... W....

    Home becomes what you're scared of the most...

  7. T.... K....

    This reminds me of Ellie Goulding before she went all poppy, but I do like her albums. Trust me, I loved her for... ugh, three years... so long, and then I saw her at concert and I was SOOOO happy!! Yah, this kind of reminds me of her, but not fully

  8. C.... V....

    ❤😍

  9. R.... S....

    to learn from past experience, you can't make flowers grow. that's what i'm hearing. the lyrics in this video are saying something different.

  10. B.... D....

    Whenever I lost something my spiritual part of my soul , I listen this song. Last time I listened it was in 2009, Miss you ...

  11. F.... ....

    I like this song. It's relatable and catchy. I also like the part where It says " Shadows turn into ghosts" because I think of shadows as memories and how they turn into nothing but a ghost of a fraction of a memory. I also like how this could have multiple meanings. I just like this song in general.

  12. I.... a....

    my daughter is in dance. they were practicing there moves to be picked for competition. My daughter didn't realize what the lyrics of this song was about but thought of her father the entire time and danced her best. The teacher asked if anyone knew what this song meant. A close friend of hers answered and said it was about loved ones who have passed away and looked at my daughter. My daughter lost her father this year in August. She was picked to compete dancing to this song. She just told me to listen to it. Needless to say I have chills all over and am in tears. I loved this song. I'll be listen to it often.

    I.... a....

    Dance is amazing and so is Gabby I've been dancing for ten years it's helped me deal with my depression and anxiety, music is my lifeblood I hope your daughter feels the same. : )

  13. A.... B....
