Honey you know it had to leave
Before your love gently crippled me
Now half my heart can always be found
Sleeping in that old ghost town
Baby you were one my one regret
Such a sad song I simply won’t forget
Cause its written in the walls how the war went down
All around that old ghost town
Sometimes I take a wander through these empty streets
To listen to the echoes of the past
True love is a city built on endless dreams
Our town was never built to last
So darling you’ll always be my friend
Although I hated you until the bitter end
Cause you took my love and weighed it down
And left it in that old ghost town
In my dreams I sometimes go walking
And when I’m lost I search for homeward bound
But somehow every road I end up taking
Leads me to that old ghost town
So now I’ve finally found my fate
I know that leaving you was never a mistake
And when the stars are out and the world is sound
You might find me in that old ghost town
You might meet me in that old ghost town
I lost my heart in that old ghost town
