Daron Norwood - Phantom of the Opry lyrics

Around midnight A shadow appears on center stage And sings a haunting melody While a distant fiddle plays Look closer You can almost see a rhinestone shining in the dark He's still a living legend Living right here in my heart He's the phantom of the Opry A grand ole spirit from the Ryman days He just feels at home here He don't really mean to haunt this place Every time it rains in Nashville They say the angels cry 'Cause the phantom of the Opry Never got to say goodbye Some say it's Hank or Lefty Or that Kentucky Bluebird flying back again No one knows for certain But we all know it's more than just the wind There's a ghostly sound of steel guitar Crying in the night Does it come from center stage Or from somewhere on the other side He's the phantom of the Opry A grand ole spirit from the Ryman days He just feels at home here He don't really mean to haunt this place Every time it rains in Nashville They say the angels cry 'Cause the phantom of the Opry Never got to say goodbye Around midnight A shadow appears on center stage And sings a haunting melody While a distant fiddle plays
