Ghost Trucker Lyrics

Out on the road for fifteen long years

I've seen my share of goin's on

Honky tonks and girlie bars

Do nothin' to end my woman's fears

But she knows, now she knows I'm comin' home

Well she forgives me – and I'm finally comin' home

These eighteen wheels spin a bitter tale

Of lonely nights and endless fights

My headlights they pierce the fog

My heart pounds heavy like the hail

Oh once again, I'm getting closer now, I can almost see her face

But fog moves in, and I lose my way, somethin's outa place

I can't seem to remember now

Twisting metal and breakin' glass

I fly along through empty space

My blood marks my ghostly trail

Is that me, lord, what's left of me, on the side of the road

And I see her, from above, I see her cryin' - sorrow on her face

I wish that I, oh I wish that I, could ease her pain

I just can't make myself go, here I will always remain
