TRAIL OF TEARS
By Thomas Tamoria
Whenever I think of you I can't help wondering why
I chose to walk away and bid you my goodbye
Don't know what came over me
I was too blind to see
I'm in such misery without you by my side
Forgive me, Girl, I was out of my head
I take back all the thoughtless things I shouldn't have said
CHORUS: I've cried a trail of tears leading to you
Like a string of pearls glistening in the light of the moon
Please tell me you believe we can make a new start
Let this trail of tears finally end where I enter your heart
I wasn't ready for the feelings that I found
Or all of the memories when my heart was tossed around
As you got near to me
There was a fear in me
Now you're not here with me and I'm out on my own
The pain I feel for not having you here
Is so much worse than the pain that I fear
CHORUS: Repeat
BRIDGE: How could I know you were my destiny (Destiny is what I found in you)
It wasn't love at first glance
(It took awhile for me to see that it was true)
And hindsight's always twenty-twenty
(I see clearly I know what I want this time)
Why can't we give this one more chance
(Please look at me I’m crying)
CHORUS: Repeat
