lovett - ghosts of old highways lyrics
[verse 1]
most of this is a maybe
that ain’t no perfect plan
all along i been keeping on the run
from how it began
[verse 2]
with tears like the eyes of a baby
oh like a sinking sand
everybody got an axe to grind
but mine just slipped through my hands
[chorus]
now i have seen the face
of the ghosts of old highways
[verse 3]
i tried to tell you but it’s no use
so what am i doin’ here?
every beauty hides a truth
like dust on a chandelier
[verse 4]
and nothing knows temptation like
like the edge of a blade
all i ever wanted was to see your face
when i reached my dying day
[chorus]
and i have the ghosts
all the ghosts of old highways
and heaven knows i don’t
want them to come and take me away
[verse 5]
the business end of a barrel
smokin’ like the mouth of the sun
there’s no danger like a knot in a noose
slowly comin’ undone
[verse 6]
it’s never easy when it comes so quick
could never make the comfort stick
everybody wants to know the trick
but no no no there ain’t one
[outro]
so if it’s not too late
i won’t make them wait
on that old highway
all i have i will give away
