The ghost of the baby I aborted
Haunts me to this day
And I’m here to testify
That as long as I’m alive
My baby’s ghost will never go away

I met the man I thought I’d spend my life with
On a cold lonely November day
And his smile and his kiss brought me long what I had missed
And drove those winter clouds away

I thought I’s gonna love him till I died
I thought I was gonna be his bride
But our love began to fade like flowers on a grave
But in nine months there’d be no way to hide

The ghost of the baby I aborted
Haunts me to this day
And I’m here to testify
That as long as I’m alive
My baby’s ghost will never go away

The doctor told me that it wouldn’t hurt
Right before he stuck that needle up my skirt
But when my baby did depart I felt that needle in my heart
The second pain was far worse than the first

The ghost of the baby I aborted
Haunts me to this day
And I’m here to testify
That as long as I’m alive
My baby’s ghost will never go away

I turned my back on such a blessing
Of a child I could hold right in my arms
I listened to that ancient lie, Oh God the pain I feel inside
How could I bring my darling to such harm?
