about

Lost in dreamland... This song was composed and written by Brett Winston from Knoxville's great band The Ghosts. I discovered this song via a former bandmate's cassette tape back in 2000, and performed it for years before tracking down Brett and asking him if I could record it. He did me the honor of contributing backing vocals and electric guitar.

lyrics

You come around in the middle of the night
You come around, I never see you in the light
You come around but it ain't what it seems
I only want you to haunt my dreams

Well, I am the Devil and you gotta understand
I make a man love a woman, make a woman love a man
I hear 'em cryin', Devil, come send 'em to me
I gotta fly 'em on down on those little wings
Said I gotta fly 'em on down on those little wings
Well, now Devil...no, Devil, no it ain't what it seems
I only want you to haunt my dreams

You come around in the middle of the night
You come around, I never see you in the light
You come around but it ain't what it seems
I only want you to haunt my dreams

Well Jesus was the only one who understood
But all it got Him was nailed to that wood
Well, now Jesus don't you act like you're bumming
'Cause we're gonna hang around here until the Second Coming
Said we're gonna hang around here until the Second Coming
Well now Jesus, no Jesus, don't you act like you're bumming
'Cause we're gonna hang and party until the Second Coming

Well now Moses never wore no disguise
No, he saw through the riddles and he saw through the lies
I tell ya baby, everything gonna be all right
'Cause if you're down with him, you're gonna be just fine
Said if you're down with him, you're gonna be just fine
Well, now Moses had the guitar, the Lord and the wine,
So if you're down with him, you're gonna be just fine

You come around in the middle of the night
You come around, I never see you in the light
You come around but it ain't what it seems
I only want you to haunt my dreams
