Spirit on the Prowl

(Emily Singleton)
2006
Emily Singleton
CHORUS
I hear the midnight call, and then I awaken,
the voice I hear is like the sound of a coyote howl,
in a hidden grave, your body’s sleepin’,
but when the sun goes down and then midnight comes,
your spirit’s on the prowl.

VERSE MELODY
In dreams your image haunts me like the devil,
and slumber will not silence the constant sound,
of my guilty conscience whispering the mem’ry,
of the grave I dug, but not deep enough,
to hold your ghost down in the ground.

CHORUS

If I could change one thing then I’d trade places,
I would not take your life, I’d take my own,
and then I’d torment you among the living,
but this course I’ve set of livin’ life’s regret,
is from the seeds that I have sown.

CHORUS
