Paul Kelly - Ghost Town lyrics

Today I thought I saw you Standing on the corner I was just about to call your name, I nearly touched her Then she turned and suddenly it all came crashing down Just my imagination playing tricks in ghost town This morning I lay sleeping I heard soft footsteps creeping Standing right beside me at my bed I felt your breathing You said 'Daddy can I come inside? It's cold down in the ground' The sun came in, I woke up hard and empty in ghost town Now I wander everywhere Talking to the air And every day just like the day before in countless numbers And every night the curtain falls upon the day gone down And every single town that I pa** through is a ghost town
