Dancing with Her Ghost

Dust is settling softly on the empty bed,
I forgot again where to lay my heavy head.
In this dark old house, only shadows remain,
They know every detail of my blackest pain.
Doors are locked tight, the candles burned down,
Only echoes walk through this ghost of a town.

Припев
And I’m dancing with her ghost in the quiet night,
Step by step across a floor with no end in sight.
My arms are holding onto nothing but the chill,
Without her around, my whole world stands still.
Just me and this sorrow that I can't outgrow,
Dancing with the phantom that stole my soul.



The wooden cross on the hill is leaning out of line,
I begged the empty sky, but I got no sign.
A black crow hollered from a dead, dry pine,
That she ain't ever coming back to be mine.
My cold six-shooter stays quiet in the drawer,
The night’s been taking what I can't fight for.

Припев
And I’m dancing with her ghost in the quiet night,
Step by step across a floor with no end in sight.
My arms are holding onto nothing but the chill,
Without her around, my whole world stands still.
Just me and this sorrow that I can't outgrow,
Dancing with the phantom that stole my soul.
