lyrics

Laying in their bed alone, just before he drifts off to sleep
He thinks of her out there somewhere
She can't sleep, she can't dream, turning in the darkness alone
Her lover in another town

Ghosts in the shadows
Empty fields and pure regrets
The harvest is all gathered
What will they ever do with it

A kid on a bike, riding down the county road
He wonders, who must live in that place
She gets up before dawn, humbled in a new way
She makes up her mind to go back home

Ghosts in the shadows
Empty fields and pure regrets
The harvest is all gathered
What will they ever do with it
