Too Many Footprints

(Tom T. Hall)



I tried to tell myself it's not important

You've been in love so many times before

But I won't be back to be another number

There are too many footprints on your floor.



Too many footprints on your floor

And some of them were bigger shoes than mine

How many others have you kissed goodnight at your front door

There are too many footprints on your floor.



--- Instrumental ---



When I find love I wanna find a true love

I'm gonna stand where no one's stood before

So goodbye and if you must know why I'm leavin'

There are too many footprints on your floor.



Too many footprints on your floor

And some of them were bigger shoes than mine

How many others have you kissed goodnight at your front door

There are too many footprints on your floor...
