ben shannon - ghost town lyrics

[verse 1]
someone’s coming home with some work boots on
and a lunch box in their hand
someone is a+hearing that rock and roll music
like it’s coming from a little tin can
someone’s picking food in a backyard garden
with the wash out on the line
where the honeysuckle blooms
and the buzzing bees loom
in the town that used to live here
[chorus]
in the town that used to live here
there was a way of living
we could be living
if we had a moment to share
in the town that used to live here, oh+woah
[verse 2]
someone sits down and plays a piano
with the door wide open to the night
and someone sits rocking in those rocking chairs
signing along in the pale moonlight
and someone is standing at the bottom of the stairs
listening with all of their might
to the song that keeps coming
from the place that we been running
the town that used to live here
[chorus]
yeah, the town that used to live here
there was a way of living
we could be living
if we had a moment to share
in the town that used to live here, oh+woah
[verse 3]
no one is crying
that’s just water that trying
to turn itself back into rain
no one is lonesome
that’s an old dog moaning
and straining at the length of his chain
no one is broken that’s just empty bottles
lying on their side in the rain
no one is feeling that empty old feeling
in the town that used to live here
[bridge]
once upon a time, the end is a story
that some folks believe is coming true
it says our factories and schools, fire halls and tools
are just a flashing light passing on through
it says we all will become
comfortable and numb
forget what we were put here to do
it says we’ll plant flag in our yard
turn our backs on the dream we’re living up to[?]
[chorus]
in the town that used to live here
there was a way of living
we could be living
if we had a moment to share
in the town that used to live here, woah +oh+oh+oh
there was a way of living
we could be living
if we had a moment to share
in the town that used to live here, woah+oh+oh+oh
