Grand Canyon
Without a stitch of clothing on
I'm standing in the night
You took away my shelter
Now I'm looking for a light
I gave you my heart I know now it was
A foolish thing to do
Should have run but I was blinded
To this grand canyon in you
I met you in the morning
You had ribbons in your hair
The sun was shining down on us
All our friends were there
Thought the world was smiling
At the time it felt so true
Never knew that I'd be falling
For this grand canyon in you
I swaggered down the aisle
All second thoughts aside
Floating down a river
Just rolling with the tide
We look at a mystery
And often miss the many clues
Should have seen it coming baby
This grand canyon in you
A joker's in the party
I think he's tugging at my sleeve
I think he's saying mister
You're too easy to deceive
Well I never did like jokers
What if he tells me
Something I never knew
Like today may be my doomsday
With this grand canyon in you
I look around at friends of mine
Laughing in their beer
Not a wrinkle on their faces
Like the ones that I see here
When I look in the mirror and see
This tiny black spot of truth
Wish I had noticed
This grand canyon in you
The stars are in the heavens
My heart is in my hand
Been staring at it closely
But I'll never understand
Why with everything so beautiful
I stumble along as I do
Never thought it possible
This grand canyon in you
I look into your eves each day
For a little sign of change
We're staring at old furniture
That's never rearranged
Things they never work out
Quite the way you want 'em to
Should have listened to the
Warnings of this
Grand canyon in you
I'm standing in the night
You took away my shelter
Now I'm looking for a light
I gave you my heart I know now it was
A foolish thing to do
Should have run but I was blinded
To this grand canyon in you
I met you in the morning
You had ribbons in your hair
The sun was shining down on us
All our friends were there
Thought the world was smiling
At the time it felt so true
Never knew that I'd be falling
For this grand canyon in you
I swaggered down the aisle
All second thoughts aside
Floating down a river
Just rolling with the tide
We look at a mystery
And often miss the many clues
Should have seen it coming baby
This grand canyon in you
A joker's in the party
I think he's tugging at my sleeve
I think he's saying mister
You're too easy to deceive
Well I never did like jokers
What if he tells me
Something I never knew
Like today may be my doomsday
With this grand canyon in you
I look around at friends of mine
Laughing in their beer
Not a wrinkle on their faces
Like the ones that I see here
When I look in the mirror and see
This tiny black spot of truth
Wish I had noticed
This grand canyon in you
The stars are in the heavens
My heart is in my hand
Been staring at it closely
But I'll never understand
Why with everything so beautiful
I stumble along as I do
Never thought it possible
This grand canyon in you
I look into your eves each day
For a little sign of change
We're staring at old furniture
That's never rearranged
Things they never work out
Quite the way you want 'em to
Should have listened to the
Warnings of this
Grand canyon in you
