Song language: English
Trail of Tears |
| The sunrise above them |
| As they make their way |
| In the early morning light |
| No backward glance |
| Frightened of tomorrow |
| On a lonely road |
| Shrouded in misted rain |
| The vanquished race |
| Chorus: |
| They felt the touch of loneliness |
| They felt the dread of fear |
| And found the path of wisdom |
| Along the trail of tears |
| So many ways of falling |
| A thousand barefoot tribes |
| Who trusted promises |
| No resting place |
| March into the wilderness |
| Time their fate decides |
| Leaving behind them |
| Treasures and gold |
| (Chorus) |
| The sun sets before them |
| In another land |
| Withered in spirit |
| The struggle ends |
| (Chorus 2x) |
