Guadalcanal Diary - Ghosts on the Road lyrics

Phantom headlights, broken white line Bloodstains on the highway, glowing power lines Signal thirty whispers softly through the pine He said that no one could take her away None that could tear them apart The song she was singing made a mans blood run cold Like a moth in flames, torn from his heart Ghost on the road, ah Ghost on the road, ah Ghost on the road, ah Ghost on the road, ah Flashing road signs misty red eyes lost on the highway, not a soul in sight endless black ribbon racing through the night She said that nothing in the world would survive lonely spirit float on the wind No candles burned to light his way in this life No one saw the veil of sorrow closing to an end Ghost on the road, ah Ghost on the road, ah Ghost on the road, ah Ghost on the road, ah Four barrells roll, down a country road Driver never sleeps, engine never slows They say he'll stop one day and look back to see a girl who waits by the bend Her silvery laugh will remind him of one past by his side until the night must call her home again Ghost on the road, ah
