Lyrics

**Verse 1**
In the town of Ravenswood, there's a tale to be told,

Of a library ancient, with secrets untold,

Where Elias Thornton, a scholar so wise,

Met his end at his desk, under stormy skies.

**Chorus**

The Phantom of the Library, whispers in the night,

Turning pages, ghostly sight,

Bound by words, he can't let go,

In the shadows, his spirit flows.

**Verse 2**

Books would fly, whispers in the air,

A ghostly figure, hunched in despair,

Mrs. Hartley felt the chill near his desk,

Where his manuscript lay, an unfinished quest.

**Chorus**

The Phantom of the Library, whispers in the night,

Turning pages, ghostly sight,

Bound by words, he can't let go,

In the shadows, his spirit flows.

**Bridge**

Then came Clara, young and bold,

Determined to uncover stories old,

She worked through nights, felt his touch,

The Phantom’s presence, cold and clutch.

**Verse 3**

As Clara penned the final line,

Elias appeared, his spirit fine,

With gratitude, he faded away,

His unfinished work now complete that day.

**Chorus**

The Phantom of the Library, whispers in the night,

Turning pages, ghostly sight,

Bound by words, he can't let go,

In the shadows, his spirit flows.

**Outro**

Now Ravenswood Library, peaceful and bright,

No more ghostly whispers in the night,

But the tale lives on, in whispers and song,

Of the Phantom and the scholar, where they belong.
