Trail Of Tears - Brother Firetribe

I can see the shoreline

And I feel the wind in my hair

Got my motor running

And my hands hold on the wheel

Driving to the sunset

With my baby by my side

Hear the notes of freedom

Sounds so good to these old ears

My mind was numb from working over time

I never really found a reason why

Those days seem to be over, they're over

I found a way, I found a new life

Left behind the past, the trail of tears

I found a way, I found a new life

No more walking the same old trail of tears

I was down on my luck

I was torn, I was blind

Reaching for the bottle

Drank my sorrows, sank my pain

I still recall the darkest night of the year

And the face in the mirror

A stranger staring back at me

Then there was you, an angel from above

I felt your fire burning deep inside

You just saw right through me, right through me

It was a matter of life and Death

I couldn’t set myself free

Now you control my destiny

I don’t wanna go back, go back to yesterday
