Gold trails and ghost towns 
Running running around 
I thought we’d stay here
Thought we would live it out
You were the first to leave
And we bid you well

Our dreams fester and bloom
Under the hazy moon
Where did the time go? 
It’s not like you to give it up
Your grudges were the greatest of all

Gold trails and ghost towns 
Running running around 
I thought we’d stay here
Thought we would live it out
You were the first to leave
And we bid you well

Six am get up for work
Heavy boots and a neon shirt 
Where did the joy go? 
It’s not like me to give it up 
I worked so hard for all I’ve got 

Gold trails and ghost towns 
Running running around 
I thought we’d stay here
Thought we would live it out
You were the first to leave
And we bid you well

Live each day like it’s your last
Full heart and an empty glass
Where did the hope go?
It’s not like you to give it up 
But we will all move on
And on and on
And on and on and on and on

Gold trails and ghost towns 
Running running around 
I thought we’d stay here
Thought we would live it out
You were the first to leave
And we bid you well

Michelle Lonsdale's Album

Gold Trails and Ghost Towns (unedited acoustic original)

A collection of songs I have been writing to hone my skill. Simply recorded and backtracked with guitar only. I am hoping to be licensing my lyrics to recording artists. I've put a lot of heart and soul into these writitngs and it would be nice if the world could hear it too.

A small town girl who is learning to play guitar and ukulele. this allows me to explore songwriting as a creative medium. Right now, I have very basic guitar and vocal tracks to ensure the lyrics are the spotlight.
