When the day is over and the sun goes down
You can hear the echo of a distant town
The train don't run out there no more
It's a ghost town
The mill don't turn and the wagons don't roll
Stray dogs hunt rats by the old flag pole
The whiskey sign turns to and fro when the wind blows
The winding road goes on for miles and I'm missing you
Your family moved when they shut the mine
I don't know where to
My heart is empty
You fill it with life
Now it's a ghost town
Oh oh it's a ghost town
We hold each other by the radio light
Now there's only static and rusted out lines
Sometimes I hear your voice through the wind and the trees
Come find me
The winding road goes on for miles and I'm missing you
Your family moved when they shut the mine
I don't know where to
My heart is empty
You fill it with life
Now it's a ghost town
The winding road goes on for miles and I'm missing you
Your family moved when they shut the mine
I don't know where to
My heart is empty
You fill it with life
Now it's a ghost town
Oh oh it's a ghost town
When the day is over and the sun goes down
You can hear the echo of a distant town
The train don't run out there no more
