I keep going to the river to pray
‘Cause I need something that can wash all the pain
And at most I’m sleeping all these demons away
But your ghost, the ghost of you
It keeps me awake
My friends had you figured out
Yeah, they saw what’s inside of you
You tried hiding another you
But your evil was coming through
These guys sitting on the wall
They watch every move I make
Bright light living in the shade
Your cold heart makes my spirit shake
I had to go through hell to prove I’m not insane
Had to meet the devil just to know his name
And that’s when my love was burning
Yeah, it’s still burning
[2x:]
I keep going to the river to pray
‘Cause I need something that can wash all the pain
And at most I’m sleeping all these demons away
But your ghost, the ghost of you
It keeps me awake
Each time that I think you go
I turn around and you’re creeping in
And I let you under my skin
‘Cause I love living in the sin
Boy you never told me
True love was going to hurt
True pain I don’t deserve
Truth is that I never learn
[2x:]
I keep going to the river to pray
‘Cause I need something that can wash all the pain
And at most I’m sleeping all these demons away
But your ghost, the ghost of you
It keeps me awake
Give up the ghost
Give up the ghost
Give up the ghost
Stop the haunting baby
Give up the ghost
Give up the ghost
Give up the ghost
No more haunting baby
I keep going to the river
[2x:]
I keep going to the river to pray
‘Cause I need something that can wash all the pain
And at most I’m sleeping all these demons away
But your ghost, the ghost of you
It keeps me awake
Prevod pesme
Duh
Stalno odlazim do reke da se molim
Jer mi treba nešto da spere svu tu bol
I u najboljem slučaju, prespavam sve te demone
Ali tvoj duh, duh tebe
On budnom drži me
Moji prijatelji su te provalili
Da, oni si te prozreli
Pokušao si da sakriješ svoje drugo lice
Ali tvoje zlo se naziralo
Ti momci što na zidu sede
Oni svaki moj pokret prate
Jarko svetlo što u senci živi
Od tvog ledenog srca moja duša drhti
Kroz pakao sam prošla da bih dokazala da nisam luda
Morala sam sresti đavola samo da bih mu ime znala
I zato je moja ljubav gorela
Da, i dalje gori
[2x:]
Stalno odlazim do reke da se molim
Zato što mi treba nešto što bi moglo isprati svu tu bol
I u najboljem slučaju, prespavam sve te demone
Ali tvoj duh, duh tebe
On budnom drži me
Svaki put kad na tebe pomislim
Okrenem se a ti mi se prikradeš
I pustim te da mi se pod kožu uvučeš
Zato što volim da živim u grehu
Dečko, nikad mi nisi rekao
Da će prava ljubav boleti
Pravu patnju ne zaslužujem
Ustvari, nikako da naučim
[2x:]
Stalno odlazim do reke da se molim
Zato što mi treba nešto što bi moglo isprati svu tu bol
I u najboljem slučaju, prespavam sve te demone
Ali tvoj duh, duh tebe
On budnom drži me
Duše, odlazi
Duše, odlazi
Duše, odlazi
Prestani me proganjati, dušo
Duše, odlazi
Duše, odlazi
Duše, odlazi
Dosta je proganjanja, dušo
Stalno odlazim do reke
[2x:]
Stalno odlazim do reke da se molim
Zato što mi treba nešto što bi moglo isprati svu tu bol
I u najboljem slučaju, prespavam sve te demone
Ali tvoj duh, duh tebe
On budnom drži me
