Ghost Trains Hallelujah Mornings lyrics

Rosemarie wouldn't ever dance for me
Katie Brown was something of a mystery
Becky Gable lived her life
Through someone else's eyes
But fell apart when Daddy left the picture

Harry Kessler loved the girls
But made them cry
Soldier Tom would never, ever tell a lie
Margot Vincent disappeared in 1985
Christ alive, that wasn't such a good year

And everything I think of
Leads me back to places I remember
Like shaky stories told by
Stupid children each September
And Hallelujah mornings wondering
What the hell did I surrender?
When did I get old?

Vanity would have changed the world for me

Jodie Temple wouldn't take me home for tea
Kelly Mason talked me out of school
Man, we were cool
Summer fun just smoking on a hillside

Mr Comedy is working down the store
Bradley's locked away
He always wanted more
Spotty Susan reads the news on local radio
And I'm not doing much to speak of

And everything I think of
Leads me back to places I remember
Like shaky stories told by
Stupid children each September
And Hallelujah mornings wondering
What the hell did I surrender?
When did I get old?
