Eskimo Joe - Ghosts of the Past lyrics

Johnny took a ticket to London Jenny took a ticket to Spain Jenny fell in love with a movie star And ran away to live in LA I stayed home to count my luck and Ended up living like a garbage truck I Can't throw away these useless things That have no place but I try And I try To disregard that lonely life But they hang onto your heart like a ghost Like a ghost I keep running I keep running But they're chasing me down like a memory I keep running I keep running But you never get away from your history I keep running Hear the ghosts of the past sing Can I get peace in the distance Can I get further away I saw you in a suit last Saturday night And man I gotta say you have aged So tell me what I look like in your eyes Am I the same enemy that you despise Well five years should've been long enough To forget the past but I try And I tried To disregard that lonely life But they hang onto your heart Like a ghost Like a ghost I keep running I keep running But they're chasing me down like a memory I keep running I keep running But you never get away from your history I keep running Hear the ghosts of the past sing See me now while you're running I'm walking all over your grave Watch me now motherf**er I'm walking all over your grave So keep running Keep running Cuz I'm chasing you down like a memory Keep running Keep running But you never get away from your history So keep running You keep running Cuz they're chasing you down like a memory I keep running You keep running But you never get away from your history So keep running I hear the ghosts of the past sing
