There Is No Arizona Lyrics
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
There is no Arizona
No pained 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 you know"
May,June,July,she wonders why
She's still waiting,she'll keep waiting 'cause
There is no Arizona
No pained 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 asking when she's going
Finally she tells them don't you know
There is no Arizona
No pained 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
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
No pained 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
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
No pained 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
Her heart sinks lower in her chest and
Friends keep asking when she's going
Finally she tells them don't you know
No pained 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

This song could be looked at through a lot of views. No matter how you spin it, a man leaves a girl and never comes back. You could say he meant to come back but for whatever reason didn't, or he just stringed her along cruelly, making her believe that he'd come back to her when he never intended on it. It could be about a lover, or even a family member, or really any significant male in a girl's life.
Like for me, it reminds me of my dad. He moved to California when I was 5, and he promised that he'd come back for me, but he never really did, and I'm in high school now.
This song is really just about broken promises, and the fact that if a girl really loves a boy or her father or really anybody enough, she'll wait forever if she has to. And sometimes, she doesn't come to her senses soon enough.
this song is about a girl and a guy and he left her, and to make it easy for her to accept, he told her that he was leaving to find a better life for them both, but he tottally disapeard and she holds on to hope. but then she realizes he left for good
Im not even a hardcore country music listener, but I love this song. Beautiful song.
This is like the 1st time i heard this song and it is a good song i think it means a girl and a guy needed some time alone and he left forever and when she says If there was a Grand Canyon She could fill it up with the lies he's told her means he has lied to her alot and she misses him
no painTed desert.
I say its about one of first cases of catfishing since the internet was just becoming popular as was msn messenger and yahoo chat :-)
