Broken windows dark and sad

Where's the light that they once had

Where's the light that they once showed

Wide awake and all alone



I built my dreams and hopes so high

And watched as love rolled down the line

I watched it 'til it was gone

'Til I found I could not move on



I know what the ghost towns know

Love comes and goes

Love comes and goes



Now people pass, they shake their heads

The way the living blame the dead

Laugh at all the things that show

But they don't know the things I know



I know what the ghost towns know

Love comes and goes

Love comes and goes



Cemetery choked with weeds

Broken church bell toll the breeze

Broken church bell pray for rain

The soul has flown, the bones remain



Cemetery's choked with weeds

Broken church bell toll the breeze

Broken church bell pray for rain

The soul has flown, the bones remain



I know what the ghost towns know

Love comes and goes

Love comes and goes

Love comes and goes



And so you all, good night, good night

Turn your lamp lights high and bright

And out across the prairies I will

Dream about when love was mine



I know
