Lyrics

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?
Aaah this city comes alive at night
See these city walls are heaving
Ooh 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
Ooh 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
Oh, blow them away
Blow, blow away
We will blow them away
Oh, blow, blow away
Blow, blow away
Blow, blow away
Aah 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 aah
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 ya believe
I believe, I believe, going all the way through, yeah
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's 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 the hand
The car went broke, the rebels saw smoke
And they all went to heaven in a stupid fantasy, go
Come, take me away
Come on and 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
Come on and take me away
Take me away, take me away to, to
