Ghost Dance

[Verse 1]

Come quick, darlin'

Come hear what I dreamed

Hold me while I

Tell you all I’ve seen

[Chorus]

There was a voice inside the fire

And the words were lined with stars

Said the fuel will soon depart

For the ghost dance

[Verse 2]

I looked up on Mother Life

She rode the comet's tail

Bluest sorrows filled her eyes

Somehow, she felt she failed

[Chorus]

She said love to you who've tried

But the green has left the vine

And I do believe it’s time

For the ghost dance

[Chorus]

And her words fell pure as snow

On the empty hearts below

And I mourned for when they broke

At the ghost dance

And the drum beats sure and slow

And the embers left to glow

Draws all the weary souls

To the ghost dance
