He promised her a 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

postmark Tombstone

it said "I don't know where I'm going next

but when I do I'll let you know"

May June July she wonders why

shes still waiting, she'll keep waiting...



(chorus)



Each day the sun sets in to the West her heart sinks lower

in her chest and friends keep asking when shes going

finally she tells them don't you know.....



(chorus repeat 1 time)



He promised her a new and better life out in Arizona...
