Lyrics

Strange thoughts
Haunting me
Every time I look ahead it’s the past that I see
I lay low, pretending I’m doing fine

But every day when night time comes around
An icy wind seems to blow through this town
And all my dreams reflect tomorrow’s misery
Coming at me

I’m like a ghost town
When you’re not around
My heart abandoned, I’m a phantom, I’m on dead ground
Life has no spirit
When you’re not in it
Got to let you know
I just can’t let you go

Seasons come and go
But this summer is the coldest winter I’ve ever known
I keep warm
But find myself frozen in time

My whole existence seems to hinge on you
And without your touch my walls break in two
I’m in a place where no mere mortal wants to be- dark and lonely

I’m like a ghost town
When you’re not around
My heart abandoned, I’m a phantom, I’m on dead ground
Life has no spirit
When you’re not in it
Got to let you know
I just can’t let it go

I’m like a ghost town
deserted ghost town
My life in ruins, my undoing, marked for knockdown
A place forsaken, unmissed and vacant
Got to let you know
I just can’t let you go

Bring your love back
And revive this shack ridden town
If it’s truly too late
I’ll settle into my fate
Let myself fade into the ground
Like dust around me settles
Softly, gently, ghostly
and bring the demolition ball down

I’m like a ghost town
When you’re not around
My heart abandoned, I’m a phantom, I’m on dead ground
Life has no spirit
When you’re not in it
If I let you go
This ghost town is no more
