When you are a little girl, you dream of what your life is gonna be like when you grow up. You dream of your house, your kids, your husband(: you dream of your wedding, being proposed to. It sucks when you grow up and your life isn't how you wanted it. All those dreams, seem so silly and stupid.
How did I imagine my life? Well I was going to marry a firefighter (just like my grandpa and my Uncle Bret) We were going to have a big house, and a lot of horses. I wanted a pretty outdoor wedding... and a big dress, and be married in the temple like my grandparents. I wanted to be skinny and pretty. I wanted a man with blue eyes, who was taller then me, and a hard worker, one of those like you would see on those Wrangler commercials.
Now, let me get one thing straight. One day I really want that life. I just really don't see how I get there? Oh boy, my life is so different then I wanted. I just want to look at myself and think I am right where I always wanted to be!! Ugh, well who knows what life has in store for you right? Well for tonight I have a really good song I wanna share with you all!
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
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
