The Long Shadow Trail
2. The Long Shadow Trail – Linda McRae – 4:09

Shadows need light and as a kid I was told mine
Was sewn to the souls of my feet
With little girl spins we’d throw our wishes to the wind and
I swear I heard her heart beat

Evangeline talked of where she’d been
Every time the sun disappeared
She’d watch the little girls spin, collect their wishes from the wind,
And chase away the shadows they feared

On the Long Shadow Trail
On the Long Shadow Trail

So when the sun’s gone and some other one
Sees her shadow and hears her heart beat
I’ll give a little girl grin, I’ll cast my wish upon the wind
For the sun and it’s heat
To sew Evangeline back to my feet

On the Long Shadow Trail
On the Long Shadow Trail
On the Long Shadow Trail
On the Long Shadow Trail

Shadows need light and as a kid I was told mine
Was sewn to the souls of my feet
