Go ahead and stand up straight
Straight against the wall
Why did I go for you?
Pick you up when you fall
Was I too drunk to say what I said to you
Was I too blind to go and see straight through you
Ghost
You're a ghost
You're a ghost
You're a ghost
You're a ghost
You flew out on a plane
Came crashing into the ocean
And then you haunted me
Don't have a clue what's the motion
So every now and then it feels so soothing
When you float on a bed and move right though me
Ghost
You're a ghost
You're a ghost
You're a ghost
You're a ghost
Yeah
One, two, three, four
Get up, save face
Find your way back to the grave
Or then go find your way back home
Get up, save face
Find your way back to the grave
You'll never find your way back home
You're a ghost
Get up, save face
Find your way back to the grave (you're a ghost)
Or then go find your way back home (you're a ghost)
Get up, save face
Find your way back to the grave (you're a ghost)
You'll never find your way back home (you're a ghost)
You're a ghost
You're a ghost
You're a ghost
You're a ghost
You're a ghost
Ghost
Straight against the wall
Why did I go for you?
Pick you up when you fall
Was I too drunk to say what I said to you
Was I too blind to go and see straight through you
You're a ghost
You're a ghost
You're a ghost
You're a ghost
Came crashing into the ocean
And then you haunted me
Don't have a clue what's the motion
So every now and then it feels so soothing
When you float on a bed and move right though me
You're a ghost
You're a ghost
You're a ghost
You're a ghost
One, two, three, four
Find your way back to the grave
Or then go find your way back home
Find your way back to the grave
You'll never find your way back home
You're a ghost
Find your way back to the grave (you're a ghost)
Or then go find your way back home (you're a ghost)
Find your way back to the grave (you're a ghost)
You'll never find your way back home (you're a ghost)
You're a ghost
You're a ghost
You're a ghost
You're a ghost

I think it's "get up, save face", instead of "get up same face"
I think this song is about falling in love with someone, then you lose them and can't get over them. They met at a bar when he told her what he felt, unaware that she would end up destroying him in the future. When she leaves him (I'm assuming it's a she by the way) it's as if she had died and she now haunts him. He doesn't even understand why she can't leave him, he even begs for her to leave. This is just what I got, quite a good song full of wonderful metaphors.
A side note. The line, "Was I too drunk to say what I said to you," might also imply that he wasn't thinking straight when he spoke him mind.
