Lyrics

There’s a ghost upstairs scares me out of my mind 
She’s been living up there nearly all of the time 
She’s got long, gray hair and sunken blue eyes 
And for all of these years I have heard her cries 
On a cold winters day one hundred years ago 
They found her footprints in the ice mountain snow 
She never found her way back home from the cold 
She froze to her death so the story is told 
The apples wither on the table 
These woods they weave an ancient fable 
The bears are scratching to get in 
A thousand ladybugs on the ceiling 
In early autumn when the leaves are bright gold 
Just cold enough for the iron pellet stove 
That turns a crank and through this old farm house sounds 
And that is the time her ghost comes around 
There’s a ghost upstairs easy to imagine 
With the white walls bare and the windows watching 
With the winter closing in when it’s gray until the spring 
When I’m just waking up to the ghost in everything 
The apples wither on the table 
These woods they weave an ancient fable 
The bears are scratching to get in 
A thousand ladybugs on the ceiling 
The wasps are trapped between the panes 
The turning of the weather vane 
The horned god in the pine forest 
Bringing Christian unrest 
There’s a ghost upstairs and she carries all my fears 
But she’s coming down 
‘Cause I found the sound
