Got my hands on the wheel all night I've been rolling
Since you've run to him I don't care where I'm going
Cause any road I take won't make my heartache disappear
And every road winds up a long trail of tears
It's a one way lonely highway tears fall like rain
Cause all I see is your mem'ry with each step I take
If you ever have a change of heart you'll find me waiting here
Baby just follow the long trail of tears
[ guitar ]
I stood by watching while our bridges crumbled
And I drove you away to the arms of another
I could drive for miles and miles if I could hold you near
But I'm bound to travel a long trail of tears
It's a one way lonely highway
Baby just follow the long trail of tears
