Ghosts

He said he had to stop, he hadn't had a drop of anything
Stronger than coffee in 10 months 3 weeks and 1 long day
He pushed away his plate and said, it's better late then never done
When it comes to gettin' right, it took a while but I saw the lightHe said, some things, they cast long shadows
That I never will out run and everyday I spend a-livin'The ghosts of all the things that I've done wrong
Grab a chair 'cause the list is long
I can write you a country song
About the reasons I'll be going homeTo a house full of memories
Things I wish I done differently
When I'm feeling weak, they keep me strong
The ghosts of all the things that I've done wrongHe said, there's a spot of paint
And it just ain't the right shade
But it covers up the hole I've made
Where I broke my wrist the night she leftAnd there's a lot of friends
That I ain't never seen in a lot of years
Some are still hangin' 'round
In old pictures I just can't take downHe said some things
They cast long shadows
That I never will out run
And everyday I do battleWith the ghosts of all the things I've done wrong
Grab a chair 'cause the list is long
I can write you a country song
About the reasons I'll be going homeTo a house full of memories
Things I wish I done differently
And when I'm feeling weak, they keep me strong
The ghosts of all the things that I've done wrongI got a heart full of memories
Things I wish I'd done differently
And when I'm feeling weak, they keep me strong
The ghosts of all the things I've done wrongHe said he had to stop
He hadn't had a drop of anything
Stronger than coffee in 10 months 3 weeks
And 1 long day
