ccceltic 0 Posted September 9, 2009 Report Share Posted September 9, 2009 (edited) I’ve listened to The Psychedelic Furs' The Ghost in You a MILLION TIMES and can’t for the life of me decipher what the background lyrics are behind the chorus vocals. RB sings it in a few videos on You Tube as a separate verse, but I can't make some of it out, especially the last line. It's something like: Strong, sweet time is You and I and Rain don't fall down Here no more, it's Starting down to oozing in In you That last line can't be right. It makes zero sense. Does anyone know the real lyrics? Edited September 10, 2009 by Guest title Link to post Share on other sites
Farin 2 Posted September 9, 2009 Report Share Posted September 9, 2009 this is supposed to come "from the author himself": Drums beat time in you and I and rain don't fall down here no more it's coming down to losing it in you. and Welcome to Songfacts Link to post Share on other sites

Ritzytrailer 0 Posted August 30, 2011 Report Share Posted August 30, 2011 OMG! It was driving me crazy,too! THANK YOU so much for posting this - you MADE MY YEAR! I have been trying to figure them out since 1984. I've just re-written my will to include the words "Love is all of heaven away" as my epitaph. This, the extent of how I love this song. Thank you again! Link to post Share on other sites
chutzpah 0 Posted September 2, 2011 Report Share Posted September 2, 2011 Wow,one of those songs that I could never figure out.And now the background lyrics make sense. Link to post Share on other sites
edna 6 Posted September 2, 2011 Report Share Posted September 2, 2011 I just found the lyrics among my papers, they played live in Spain for the TV show I worked in. They were promoting "Mirror Moves" (the album with this song) It was in 1984. The sound-check was just amazing... they played the whole concert... we were just five people on the TV set. the at night, the concert was amazing too... Yes, I'm getting old...

elioart 0 Posted April 3, 2018 Report Share Posted April 3, 2018 I found an karaoke version of Ghost in You with only the music and background vocals. I know the karaoke lyrics are all wrong, but the tracks (including the background vocals) seem to be original. I feel like there's more words to it than just the ones listed in this thread. Have a listen! Link to post Share on other sites
