Lucero - Sometimes lyrics

Sometimes it's quiet in the
Middle of the night sometimes it's lonely
Sometimes it's alright
But tonight the silence is
Louder than a train
Sounding like my father's voice
Calling out my name
Boy, you just don't realize
What you're risking
Running up and down the tracks
To hell and back again
All you've got is family
All you've got is time
I hear it in the quiet in
The middle of the night
And the ghosts down those empty roads
They all know my name
The road from Tennessee
It shakes and rattles to the bone
The hills of Arkansas are filled
With haunted lakes and ghosts


Oh, and sometimes I hear them
On those lonesome nights
And sometimes they come out of the
Woods and up to the house

Whispers in a forest carried
Through the fields
Buried in the same dirt that
They worked all those years
All the sons and fathers
All that went before
I hear it when it's quiet
Right outside my door
And the ghosts down those empty roads
They all know my name

The road from Tennessee
It shakes and rattles to the bone
The hills of Arkansas are filled
With haunted lakes and ghosts
Oh, and sometimes I hear them
On those lonesome nights
Oh, and sometimes I hear them call to me
Boy, you must find your own way
No man goes beyond his days
You and your brothers watch out
For each other always

Sometimes it's quiet in the
Middle of the night sometimes it's lonely
Sometimes it's alright
But tonight the silence is
Louder than a train
Sounding like my father's voice
Calling out my name
And the ghosts down those empty roads
Yes, they know my name
The road from Tennessee
It shakes and rattles to the bone
The hills of Arkansas are filled
With haunted lakes and ghosts
Oh, and sometimes I hear them
On those lonesome nights
And sometimes I hear them call to me
Oh, and sometimes I hear them
On those lonesome nights
And sometimes I hear my father's voice
Say "You and your brothers watch
Out for each other always"
