Grey Ghost

As the autumn wind whispers through the tall and lonely pines And the hour of fate is drawing close at hand Free bird falling from the sky Brings a bitter end to another southern man But there's a grey ghost runnin' through the night An echo of the sadness and the pain Grey ghost runnin' through the night The man is gone but his spirit will remain Fast like them, the music is just a thin disguise For the heartache and the fear of growin' old Without the one that means the most it makes you realize That you're the one that's left out in the cold There's a grey ghost runnin' through the night An echo of the sadness and the pain Grey ghost runnin' through the night The man is gone but his spirit will remain Dealer of death has dealt the losing hand And it's a cold fact the cards don't ever lie Through the fire dream of things to come is such a [unverified] pain When the memories are all that's left behind There's a grey ghost runnin' through the night An echo of the sadness and the pain Grey ghost runnin' through the night The man is gone but his spirit will remain
