Lyrics Simple Minds

Simple Minds

Ghost Dancing

Cities, buildings falling down

Satellites come crashing down

I see them falling out the skies like eagles

Mirrored glass and shattered egos

But in a corner of the world

We'd meet to laugh and drink and plan our sequels

'Cause in the alleyways and bars

Downtown, singing up from here to there can we go

This city comes alive at night

See these city walls are heaving

If these old city walls should crash

Amid the rubble, you'd find us breathing

Come say what you see in me

'Cause boy, I believe in you

Come say what you're seeing

All gone just ghost dancing, going all the way through

You talk about the Lebanon

You tell me 'bout the dawn in Eden

You talk about South Africa

I tell you about the Irish children

You say one more Polish Knight

Could come and blow away the doors to freedom

And if Mother Ethiopia could blow away the tears

We see run

O, blow them away

Blow, blow away

We will blow them away

O, blow, blow away

Blow, blow away

Blow, blow away

Come say what you see in me

'Cause boy, I believe in you

Come say what you're seeing

They're all gone just ghost dancing, going all the way through

Going all the way through

Going all the way through

You know I believe in you

Oh yes, I believe

You know I believe in you

You say you believe

I believe, I believe going all the way through, yeah

Going all the way through, yeah

Going all the way through

Come take me back home

Come on and take me away

Ghost dancing

And the car pulled up, the girl she jumped in

The boy he wore a medal that was shining from his skin

Windows pulled up, their radio tuning in

And she's hitting for the stars, he's hitting for the moon

She said, one last kiss while you look across the land

Move it into overdrive and take me by my hand

The car went broke, the rebels saw smoke

And they all went to heaven in a stupid fantasy, go

Take me away, away

Come, take me away

Come on and take me away

Come on and take me away

Take me away

Sun City, girl, Sun City, girl, Sun City, girl

Come on and take me away

Take me away, take me away to, to

Sun City, girl, Sun City, girl
