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 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 you 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 asking when she's going   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
