Trail of Tears Songtext

von Juice Newton

I've seen shadows
I've seen shine
I know what is and what is not mine
I've seen glitter
I've seen gold
I've heard everything that I've been told

I said I
Don't wanna spend my lifetime walking
Down the trail of tears
I said I
Don't wanna spend my lifetime walking
Down the trail of tears
Trail of tears

Taking my stand
Think it's time
Tired of letting you play with my mind
Love's gonna be a little
Once so sweet
Think I'm gonna stand on my own two feet

I said I
Don't wanna spend my lifetime walking
Down the trail of tears
I said I
Don't wanna spend my lifetime walking
Down the trail of tears
Trail of tears

Nobody here is wasting my time
You barely notice
Unless there's nothing's gone
True love has gone
Nobody wants to throw it away
Why bother? I'm here to stay
Or then gone
True love has gone

I've seen shadows and I've seen shine
I've been here and now I'm wasting my time
Scared of you
Scared of me
Scared of letting my future be

I said I
Don't wanna spend my lifetime walking
Down the trail of tears
I said I
Don't wanna spend my lifetime walking
Down the trail of tears
I said I
Don't wanna spend my lifetime walking
Down the trail of tears
Trail of tears
