one summer evening I was driving down the road
fallin asleep at the wheel
made it to the truck-stop but I couldn't stay awake
so my eye-lids began to seal
the road ahead was crawling with a million spooky things that I just cannot quite explain
every myth and creature in Nevada was awake they were standing in the desert rain
a dog with no eyes
and a pair of jeans walking
and a paper-mache cowboy
there's a place on the mountain
that's a rip in time
and a few of the long-lost toys
there's no time to look over your shoulder now
see the places in your memory
still intact and high above your misery
the rocks that line the riverbed
so many years have passed
dream arising from the dead
let me back to the past
the ghost in the canyon is coming down
(i feel her love)
smell the rain on the cactus flower
(flowers are blooming now)
the darkened skies
my widened eyes
and faces in the clouds
whispers from rusted cars
and strange lights on the mount
cactus and bones
killers on roads
beings untold
night will unfold
hide in the stones
make a fire to be warm
wait for the dawn
wait for the sun
I am your ghost
the one you were after
I hold the sky
and the dreams of masters
I am the place
you long to be
feel my embrace
and know
that I love you
turn away
from desolate highways
come to me
remember the old days
I'm the ghost of the canyon
the wind and the rain
you're my companion
Its like a fail-safe
if I cant live this life
there's a world aside this one
that nobody can change
it stays the same
we can visit the old place anytime
all times are one
and down the highway
veering off into the sky
the ghost and the firefly
something I wish I held onto
nights we stayed and this we knew
the way the lights had shifted blue
things were alive and moving too
step out of your mobile home
come with me out on this cloud
and no
you wont fall though it
even though you're a thousand feet off the ground
