Ghost On The Highway Lyrics - Fire Of Love - The Gun Club

It's cloudy in the west, it looks like rain 

My eyes are black holes and I'm burning away 

You slaughtered your loving man, killed him in his sleep 

The blood and crying of your murder simply stains the sheets 

Now, you're a ghost on the highway 

Your gesture is meaningless 

You're lost to the living men 

Trailing souls to the end 

You thought winning as a woman, meant failing as a friend 

It is not an art statement to drown a few passionate men 

You made yourself a diamond to blind young men's eyes 

You claim because they want your shine they deserve to walk the line 

You're a ghost on the highway 

Your gesture is meaningless 

You're lost forever to the living men 

Trailing souls till the end 

Yes, I would give you my love so my soul would not starve 

But it could never move the honest rock of what you are 

You're a ghost on the highway 

You're like straw and meaningless 

I hate you, but I love you 

I'll carry that to the end 

If I ever lie with you again, I pray I do not sleep 

If I ever close my eyes again, I'd realize what you are to me 

You are simply a liar 

An animal who bluffs and steals 

Until you become a bigger creature's meal 

You're a ghost on the highway 

You're trash and meaningless 

I hate you, but I love you 

I'll carry that to the end 

You're lost on the highway
