There is no Arizona
By: Jamie O'neal
He promised her a new and better life out in arizona
Underneath the blue never endin' 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 wake 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 ya 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 wake up and find there is no arizona.
Each day the sun sets into the west,
Her heart sinks lower in her chest,
And friends keep askin' when she's goin',
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 wake up and find there is no arizona.
He promised her a new and better life, out in arizona
