The Coleman Brothers - Ghost Town lyrics

rate me

The echo of my footsteps

Match the beating of my heart

There are shadows in the loneliness

Since we’ve been apart

I’m haunted by a heartache

In a never ending swirl

Of desert dust and tumbleweeds

You’ve left me in a world

That’s a ghost town

With you not around

There could be people everywhere

But all I do is stare

Into this ghost town

Without you here

And the pain is hard to bare

In this cold and dusty air

Since you’ve left me

In a ghost town

I rode up to the canyon

Where we used to meet

Tried to get beyond the tears

And all those memories

I looked out in that blue sky

I used to love this town

It’s not the same old sunset now

There’s no love to be found

‘Cause it’s a ghost town

With you not around

There could be people everywhere

But all I do is stare

Into this ghost town

Without you here

And the pain is hard to bare

In this cold and dusty air

Since you left me

In a ghost town

There’s a lonely desert wind

That’s blowing through my heart tonight

And there’s a glow in that sierra sky

As the sun sets all around

And the silence is so loud

That my soul can’t hear a sound

Since you’ve left me in a ghost town

Since you’ve left me in a ghost town

The echo of my footsteps

Match the beating of my heart
