Ghost of a Chance Lyrics
Sister Soul came to see me
And she made no demands
On the air, Sunday's midnight
Sister Soul understands
Pull the shades
Let it rain all day
Radio station plays Mr. John Coltrane's "Favorite Things"
Lady Day she sings
That I don't stand a ghost of a chance with you
Beautiful stranger
Now it's just me and you
Brush the dust off the needle
Put it deep in the groove
Pull the shades
Let it rain all day
Radio station plays Mr. Miles Davis' "Kind of Blue"
And I know it's true
That I don't stand a ghost of a chance with you
Cold and gray
It's gonna rain all day
Sarah Vaughan lingers on
But the black coffee's gone and I
Hate to say goodbye
But I don't stand a ghost of a chance with you now
With you now, with you now, with you now
And she made no demands
On the air, Sunday's midnight
Sister Soul understands
Let it rain all day
Radio station plays Mr. John Coltrane's "Favorite Things"
Lady Day she sings
That I don't stand a ghost of a chance with you
Now it's just me and you
Brush the dust off the needle
Put it deep in the groove
Let it rain all day
Radio station plays Mr. Miles Davis' "Kind of Blue"
And I know it's true
That I don't stand a ghost of a chance with you
It's gonna rain all day
Sarah Vaughan lingers on
But the black coffee's gone and I
Hate to say goodbye
But I don't stand a ghost of a chance with you now
With you now, with you now, with you now

I think this song is about a one-night-stand where the guy is kind of regretting the fact that the "relationship" was brought to a physical level too fast, and he believes that there's no chance for real romance, only the "hook-up." But since he's there, he'll try to make it last as long as possible, and enjoy the limited time he does have.
