As I was driving home One night in late December The snow began to fall I lived a nightmare that I always will remember The darkest of them all The snow was coming down in droves And the frost Was sticking to my windscreen And I was lost Then, before me When the storm at last subsided I saw an awesome sight
Ghost town Deadly white Frozen in the silence Of the winter night Ghost town Heaven knows What becomes of people When the wild wind blows
I stopped the car and took A frantic look around me That's when the engine died That sinking feeling of Despair will always hound me No matter how I tried The wretched motor still Refused to ignite A sence of menace loomed In the pale moonlight And I've never felt So helpless and so lonely I never knew such fright
Ghost town Deadly white Frozen in the silence Of the winter night Ghost town Nothing there Empty windows staring At you everywhere
Ghost town Dead and cold Burial ground of secrets And of tales untold Ghost town Heaven knows What becomes of people When the wild wind blows
A door crashed open Spilling light and raucous laughter Into the moonlit street And in the beam of light A shadow seconds after The sound of shuffling feet The shape was slowly Coming closer, it seemed Mysteriously familiar And how I screamed When the moonlight briefly Fell upon its features I stared at my own face
Ghost town Haunted place With eternal winter Locked in cold embrace Ghost town Heaven knows What becomes of people When the wild wind blows
Ghost town Nothing there Empty windows staring At you everywhere Ghost town Deadly white Frozen in the silence Of the winter night Ghost town Burial ground of secrets And of tales untold What becomes of people When the wild wind blows
