(Verse 1) Two white lines and a desert moon Radio playin a worn-out tune Got a dashboard full of memories And a heart still searchin for peace Every mile puts distance behind But some ghosts still know how to ride They whisper softly through the night Like shadows in the tail lights (Pre-Chorus) I kept thinkin I could outrun the pain But some storms follow you through the rain (Chorus) Ghosts in the rearview, hauntin every road Faces in the smoke from a life I used to know But I keep drivin forward, I can’t go back again No matter how loud the memories pretend Ghosts in the rearview… Fadin little by little in the wind (Verse 2) There’s a photograph taped by the wheel A reminder of what was real Some names still hit like a knife Some losses never leave your life I’ve made peace with some mistakes Others still keep me awake But the dawn keeps breakin through No matter what I’m goin through (Pre-Chorus) Maybe healing ain’t forgetting what’s gone Maybe it’s learnin how to carry on (Chorus) Ghosts in the rearview, ridin through my mind Echoes of the ones I couldn’t leave behind But I keep drivin forward, through every shattered mile Tryin to find redemption underneath this sky Ghosts in the rearview… Disappear for a little while (Guitar Solo Section) -emotional soaring lead guitar- (Bridge – stripped down) And if heaven’s somewhere past these clouds I hope they see me now Still fightin, still holdin on Still singin these midnight songs (Final Chorus huge emotional lift) Ghosts in the rearview, they’ll always be a part Of every road I travel and every beatin heart But I’m not who I was when the whole world fell apart I learned broken roads can still lead somewhere in the dark Ghosts in the rearview… But they don’t control my heart (Outro) Just two white lines… And the hope of a brand new start…
