There Is No Arizona

He promised her a new and better life out in Arizona

Underneath the blue neverending sky, swore that he was gonna

Get things in order he'd send for her

When he left her behind, it never crossed her mind



There is no Arizona

No painted desert, no Sedona

If there was a Grand Canyon

She could fill it up with the lies he's told her

But they don't exist, those dreams he sold her

She'll wak up and find

There is no Arizona



She got a postcard with no return address postmarked Tombstone

It said, I don't know where I'm goin' next,

but when I do I'll let you know

May, June, July, she wonders why

She's still waiting, she'll keep waiting ?cause



There is no Arizona

No painted desert, no Sedona

If there was a Grand Canyon

She could fill it up with the lies he's told her

But they don't exist, those dreams he sold her

She'll get there and find

There is no Arizona



Each day the sun sets into the west

Her heart sinks lower in her chest

Friends keep asking when she's going

Finally she tells them, don't you know



There is no Arizona

No painted desert, no Sedona

If there was a Grand Canyon

She could fill it up with the lies he's told her

But they don't exist, those dreams he sold her

She'll get there and find

There is no Arizona
