Tracks in the Snow
Grant Miller Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Find my tracks in the snow, snow, snow...

Look out the window
I know I have to go
Be all alone now
And feel the cold winds blow

Maybe you'll be here
I'll never know
But if you should show
You'll have to follow
My tracks in the snow

Find my tracks in the snow, babe
Wherever I go
You'll never know until you
Find my tracks in the snow, babe
Don't ever lose hold
You've got to keep on
And never say no

Looking behind me
I feel the snowy freeze
Hoping to find you
I know it's just a dream

My path is waitin'
Please don't deceive me
But hurry it know
The wind will cover
My tracks in the snow

Find my tracks in the snow, babe
Wherever I go
You'll never know until you
Find my tracks in the snow, babe
Don't ever lose hold
You've got to keep on
And never say no

You've got me tracks
So come and find me
I'll be waitin' here
I don't want to leave you there all alone

I can't relax
Without you near me
I'll be waitin' here
Am I ever gonna see you again

I know - oh baby yes I know
I know - oh baby yes I know
I'm gonna see you again

Find my tracks in the snow, babe
Wherever I go
You'll never know until you
Find my tracks in the snow, babe
Don't ever lose hold




You've got to keep on
And never say no
