He promised her an new and better life
Out in Arizona
Underneath the blue, never ending 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
Chorus:
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
Said I dont know where I'm gonna next
But when I do, I'll let you know
May, June, July
She wonders why
She's still watin'
She'll keep waitin'
Chorus
Each day the sun sets into the west
Her heart sinks lower
in her chest
her friends keep askin'
When she's going
Finally she tells them
Don't you know
Chorus
He promised her a new and better life
Out in Arizona
