Hollow, old ghost
What's the news, what's the news
How I've longed to see your face again
Don't look at me like I'm a stranger
Don't be scared, there is no danger
We pretend that we don't care
So let's just take a walk and leave it there
'Cause sometimes things just don't turn out as you meant for
And that's what late night city lights are there for
You asked me back then what I wanted to be
But I didn't really know, did you
My mama said, Someday you are gonna shine
Don't know where I'm traveling to
You'll meet a guy who'll show you a love that's kind
Don't know where I'm traveling to
I'll run away and follow a strange old sign
Dare no others would do
You know I am sorry I let you down
Don't know where I'm traveling to
What did you expect from these red lips
Curses laughter and a tender kiss
Hours went by and you got it all
Empty walls in a hollow city
What was I to do but flee
When all my thoughts lay far beyond the sea
Let's go get lost
And sometimes life just don't turn out as you meant for
And that's what late night city lights are there for
So let's go get lost, we're gonna go
Let us do it, my old friend
My mama said, You will be wise this time
Don't know where I'm traveling to
Eager to ride on the waters of your own mind
Don't know where I'm traveling to
Dimwitted man, you know I am so
Dare no others would do
Someday the wave's gonna show me the way to the sand
Don't know where I'm traveling to
Let's go get, let's go get, let's go get lost
My mama said, Someday you are gonna shine
Don't know where I'm traveling to
You'll be a woman, soft in your heart and kind
Don't know where I'm traveling to
I'll run away and follow a strange old sign
Dare no others would do
You know I am sorry I let you down
Don't know where I'm traveling to
I'll run away and follow a strange old sign
Don't know where I'm traveling to
You know I am bound to be gone and found
Don't know where I'm traveling to
Dare no others would do
I don't know where I'm traveling to
