Let's just say I was proposed to at the edge of the Grand Canyon...and I'm now divorced. This is about everything in between.

I was standing on the edge when my life began to change
And now I’m on the bottom, like I’m digging my own grave
It’s a long road to the outside and as far as I can see
Everything that happened here is a distant memory
CHORUS
Bittersweet Grand Canyon
The years have been so hard on you
Bittersweet Grand Canyon
Now I know what you’ve been through
The beauty that surrounded us would take my breath away
But the rivers that run through here, they cut me deeper every day
A million stars above me, a million promises unfulfilled
A warm wind blows around me, but inside I feel a chill…
CHORUS
I think I’ll take a plane when I visit here again
I’ll view it from a distance and remember what it meant
Take in all the colours, lay back and close my eyes
I’ll go down again one day, but only when it’s right…
CHORUS X2
