Ghosts Lyrics by David James Gibson

2020

The ghosts of our history, we didn't know their names
The heroes of the past who all are lost to yesterday
Nothing for the future but what's written in the past
The memories will fade into an empty hourglass
They walked by, lost in the night
Waiting for the start, fading to dark
The ghosts of the living, one more step away
Where we go we leave them, never to return again
That was where I left her, somewhere far from home
Another path, another place, a long, long time ago
She walked by, lost in the night
Hidden from my heart, where all fades to dark
So fall into the waters, as deep as any soul
All that's left among us are the ghosts we'll never know
Now the ghosts of the future, unwritten stories told
Time from time, along the line, before our lives are old
The slow and steady march towards the ending of our fate
And though we try to fight it there is no escaping it
I walked by, lost in the night
Trying to get back, fading to black
So fall into the waters, as deep as any soul
All that's left among us are the ghosts we'll never know
Fall into the waters, as deep as any soul
All that's left among us are the ghosts we'll never know
Fall into the waters, as deep as any soul
All that's left among us are the ghosts
We'll never know
So fall into the waters, as deep as any soul
All that's left among us are the ghosts we'll never know
Fall into the waters, as deep as any soul
All that's left among us, the ghosts
We'll never know
