| Ghost Town Was a miner came for gold and industry He looked like me, he looked like me And one day high up on the continent's divide His eyes grew wide, his eyes went wild Was an immigrant from old forgotten lands He looked like me, he looked like me And every day he went a-working with his hands To build his dream, to build his dream Was a preacher left his wife across the pass He looked like me, he looked like me He said he saw two demons lurking in these streets Pride and Greed, Pride and Greed, yeah Will you come this way? Will you be the one, the one who stays? Will you light up these streets with poker and champagne Or will this ghost town fade away? Will you come this way? Will you be the one, the one who stays? Will you light up these streets like Dr. Holiday Or will this ghost town fade away? Will you come this way? Will you be the one, the one who stays? Will you light up these streets from Denver to Ouray Or will this ghost town fade away? Was a hooker who was every man's reward Named Melody, named Melody But when the sickness broke she labored in the ward She was their queen, she was their queen If we go walking down these old forgotten streets Will we believe? Will we believe? If we go running down the road of history What will we keep? What will we keep? If there's a word that you can whisper but not speak Save it for me, save it for me If there's a lesson you have learned but just can't teach Save it for me, save it for me Will you come this way? Will you be the one, the one who stays? Will you light up these streets with luminescent dreams Or will this ghost town fade away? Will you come this way? Will you be the one, the one who stays? Will you light up these streets with epic tales of bravery Or will this ghost town fade away? Will you come this way? Will you be the one, the one who stays? Will you dig down so deep to where our culture sleeps Or will this ghost town fade away? |
