    The ghost who walks
    she's on the prowl
    for the man she loved
    he cut her down
    it was an ordinary night in June
    when he drove her to the lake
    so they could watch the full moon
    The ghost who walks
    she's on the prowl
    for the man she loved
    he laid her down
    in the tall grass
    he kissed her cheek
    but with a knife in his hand
    he plunged it in deep
    She looked at him with pleading eyes
    he softly spoke
    "my dear the love has died"
    and then he muffled her desperate cries
    under the moonlight
    Ghost who walks
    she's on the prowl
    wanders in the moonlight
    she's crying to herself because
    eyes never once looked cruel
    but the moon in the blade
    shimmered like a jewel
    she looked at him with pleading eyes
    he softly spoke
    "my dear the love has died"
    and then he muffled her deadly cries
    under the moonlight
    Under the moonlight
    under the moonlight
    under the moonlight

    She writes her own songs and plays guitar and was doing so even before she met Jack. Stop being condescending and sexist, people. You never question if men write their songs or if they are really playing their instruments.
    Also, props to the one-armed keyboard player!

      TokyoBlue that's true she's been a musician before she met Jack, but jack did contribute to this song as well, he produced it.
      Also people do question men if they write their own music, drake for example. Playing the women card when it's irrelevant is unnecessary - who are you, Constance Wu? Lol
