The shadows of who we used to be Are haunting me Are haunting me Our silhouettes on rooftop sheets Are following me Are following me I've traveled the world but I keep coming right back To our old street the only home I ever had They boarded up all those places where we'd meet So wave goodbye to the ghosts of Houston street Wave goodbye to the ghosts of Houston street They've gated all the parks and the bodegas all are gone They took a part of me A part of me And all our friends they packed it up and moved along It's no mystery It's ancient history I've traveled the world but I keep coming right back To our old street the only home I ever had They boarded up all those places where we'd meet So wave goodbye to the ghosts of Houston street Wave goodbye to the ghosts of Houston street I've traveled the world but I keep coming right back To our old street the only home I ever had They boarded up all those places where we'd meet So wave goodbye to the ghosts of Houston street Wave goodbye to the ghosts of Houston street
