Ghost Of A Town ft. Bart Topher Lyrics

In the year of 1890

They're leavin' their farms behind

For a future, all bright and shiny

And dreams that they're hopin' to find

Decades go by, as industrial towns

Rise up from the ground overnight

But a fast-changin' world can shut factories down

So you hold on with all of your might

The highway runs around it

And the world just passes by it

As one by one, every last light burns out

Leaving behind the ghost of a town

The changes can happen so slowly

You tell yourself everything's fine

But deep down inside, there's a knowing

Of the gradual state of decline

The young ones, they don't remember

The way it all used to be

For the old ones, the past just grows dimmer

And there's less that remains to be seen

The highway runs around it

And the world just passes by it

As one by one, every last light burns out

Leaving behind the ghost of a town

Everything under the sun

Is born for dyin'

Everything under the sun

Is born for dyin'

Everything under the sun

Is born for dyin'

Everything under the sun

Is born for dyin'

The highway runs around it

And the world just passes by it

As one by one, every last light burns out

Leaving behind the ghost of a town

The highway runs around it

And the world just passes by it

As one by one, every last light burns out

Leaving behind the ghost of a town
