My mother's mother
And her mother before
Sitting here with me
On this dusty floor
That Little Rock house
Was a big old stone
Weighing on me
Had to go it alone

Traveled miles and miles to get to me
All the missing pieces drenched in reverie
Lookin in the mirror I see
Mama your eyes staring back at me

These are the ghosts that I am
All I have are memories
I hold in my hands
We build our castles so tall
And leave behind boxes
Empty spaces on the wall

Champagne cork for a wedding long gone
Brand new dance card
I'm still twirling on
A scrapbook album, handful of songs
What remains after we pass on

Did you imagine all of this for me
Wide open prairie, my dog, my cat, and me
Did you know that love would be your legacy
Mama, Butch, and Betty are you proud of me

These are the ghosts that I am
All I have are memories
I hold in my hands
We build our castles so tall
And leave behind boxes
Empty spaces on the wall

Traveled miles and miles to get to me
All these missing pieces drenched in reverie
As salty tears and questions flow free
I wish you were here to answer me

These are the ghosts that I am
These are the ghosts that I am
These are the ghosts that I am
I am, I am
