Been living down the wrong side of town

I should move up to the right

Maybe I should make a move tonight

All alone I hear a sound

A voice within said: It's just the wind

A ghost of mist closes in

The early mornin' is wakin' up

And the ghost, he sings

Wake up, wake up

You're allowed to let it out

Nobody knows what you're thinkin'

Wake up, wake up

And bail the water out

Before you start sinkin'

It's just the wind

Says the voice within

Been sifting out the dirt in the ground

I've been tryna find some gold

Even if I do find something new

When does something new become something old?

All alone I hear a sound

A voice within said: It's just the wind

A ghost of mist closes in

The early mornin' is wakin' up

And the ghost, he sings

Wake up, wake up

You're allowed to let it out

Nobody knows what you're thinkin'

Wake up, wake up

And bail the water out

Before you start sinkin'

It's just the wind

Says the voice within

And the ghost, he grins

'Cause he knows that it's him
