Sufjan Stevens Enchanting Ghost lyrics

Tell me what you saw in me
And I'll try to replicate it with a scene
If it troubles you to breathe
Wait a moment, I could change the scenery

Don't carry on carrying efforts
Oh no, oh, oh, oh, oh
Somewhere there's a room
For each of us to grow

And if it pleases you to leave me
Just go, oh, oh, oh, oh
Stopping you would stifle
Your enchanting ghost

It's only that I meant to bring
Love and liveliness to your breast on the scene
Did you cut your hands on me?
Are my edges sharp? Am I a pest to feed?

Don't carry on carrying regrets
Oh no, oh, oh, oh
Somewhere there's a room
For us to speak alone


And if it grieves you to stay here
Just go, oh, oh, oh, oh
For I have no spell on you
It's all a ghost

I still have the things you gave me
Four anointing oils, the paper weight you made
For sure, I haven't carried them
Or buried them in the name of your ghost, my friend

Don't carry on carrying efforts
Don't go, no, oh, oh, oh
Stay with me
Until I sleep within your host

Or if it pleases you to leave me
Just go, oh, oh, oh, oh
Stopping you would
Stifle your enchanting ghost
