She holds her own in a world where no one watches
She knows how to be heard
She sees everything more clearly than the others
Controls a room without a word
Every day, I'm voicing her opinions
But I can never voice my own
She's sophisticated, too good for a guy like me
It's best she doesn't know
I know I'll never hear the words I'll always long for her to say
I know I'll never hear the whispers of a romantic cliche
I know it's silly, cos we might not even live to see that day
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Ghosts round every corner taunting me
But her face is the one that's haunting me
With courage I would ask for one more sign
Saying she'd let me be hers and she'd be mine
Communicating in our special language
It's a special bond we share
Am I daft to think that somewhere underneath the surface
There is something deeper there?
But it's not the time for distractions sentimental
Nor will it ever be
We're working hard, protecting everyone on base
Our number one priority
I know I'll never hear the words I'll always long for her to say
I know I'll never hear the whispers of a romantic cliche
I'm being stupid, cos we might not even live to see that day
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Ghosts round every corner taunting me
But her face is the one that's haunting me
With courage I would ask for one more sign
Saying she'd let me be hers and she'd be mine
We cannot trust the time lord to get us out alright
There's only one girl in this place for whom he'd really fight
Well, cass is mine, and I would die before I'd see her hurt
(That's as long as she's not the one rescuing me first)
Oh, ghosts round every corner taunting me
But her face is the one that's haunting me
With courage I would ask for one more sign
Saying she'd let me be hers and she'd be mine
And she'd be mine
And she'd be mine
(With courage)
(Round every corner)
