John Skelley - Gina's Ghost Town Lyrics

In a town where the legends meet the sky, I found love in a fighter's eyes
Gina Carano, fierce and bold. Her heart, I thought, was mine to hold
But now the law says I must stay away from the love that made my night and day
A restraining order, a paper wall between me and my Gina, my heart is full

We had dreams of a life simple and sweet, but now the echo of her voice gets bittersweet
I see her in the crowds, in every face, longing for the warmth of her embrace
I remember the nights, the stars above, whispering promises, a hand in a glove
A duty called, and now it's sorrow. For loving her, there's mine to hold

But now the law says I must stay away from the love that made my night and day
A restraining order, a paper wall between me and my Gina, my heart is full
We had dreams of a life simple and sweet, but now the echo of her voice gets bittersweet
I see her in the crowds, in every face, longing for the warmth of her embrace

I remember the nights, the stars above, whispering promises, a hand in a glove
A duty called, and now it's sorrow. For loving her, there's no tomorrow
I say distance makes the heart grow fonder, whispering promises, the legal blunder
I'm handcuffed by the law, by her command, to love Gina from afar I stand

I've got her picture, worn and creased, the memory of her kiss, at least
I sit by the radio, hoping to hear her voice and my heart always near
Oh, how do I let go when every song speaks of her in every throng
I'm bound by words on paper and not by love, yet my heart flies to her like a dove

So here's to the love that can't be, to Gina Carano, my love, my plea
I'll keep her in my heart through rain and shine, loving her silently till the end of time
