He said he had to stop, he hadn't had a drop of anything
Stronger than coffee
In ten months, three weeks, and one long day
He pushed away his plate, and said it's better late than never done
When it comes to getting right
It took a while but I saw the light
He said some things they cast long shadows
That I never will outrun
And every day I spend livin' with
Ghosts of all the things that I've done wrong
Grab a chair 'cuz the list is long
I can write you a country song
'Bout the reasons I'll be going home
To a house full of memories
Things I wish I'd done differently
But when I'm feeling weak they keep me strong
Ghosts of all the things, that I've done wrong
Said there's a spot of paint and it just ain't the right shade
