lyrics

They like to hang around.
Snap your fingers,
say your prayer soft or loud
and they go so fast.
You know your prayer is the best.
We’ve got to use the best.

And the ghosts can’t make a sound.
Sadly they can’t approach a sacred sound.
They just hang around.

And You--
You are not a ghost at all.
Not for a second because
you are real
you are real
Everyone and everything is real.
Whether you know, it depends on how you feel.

They hang around,
but you don’t have to fear.
Say your prayer now,
deep breath of air, and suddenly you’re real.
You are real, no question.
And these ghosts aren’t worth your attention.
