Ghosts
I'm driving through a ghost town
Everywhere I look I see another face
Vanished long ago
But I can still see it
I live in the ghost town
I'm the only one
They all left to go somewhere better
They all left me
And that's why I can't leave
I'm waiting for them to come back
They never will
But I still hope
A hope that will kill me
It's a ghost town
The ghosts of my past
Are haunting me on every corner
Outside the bowling alley where we sat
In the park where we kissed
In my driveway where we hugged
In the fields where we laughed
At the ice rink where we held hands
All these places where they are
Where my ghosts linger
They kill me
Nothing will ever be the same
Everything has changed
Yet I stay in the ghost town
