Grand Canyon

I've seen you calm the waters raging in the rivers of my mind

Your spirit blows a breeze into my soul

And I've felt the fire that warms the heart

Knowing that it comes from you

Then I've let it turn as cold as a stone

Oh, sometimes I feel like I'm as close as your shadow

Sometimes I feel like I'm looking up at you

From the bottom of the Grand Canyon, so small and so far

From the Grand Canyon with a hole in my heart

And I'm a long way from where I know I need to be

And there's a Grand Canyon between you and me

I've had the faith that gave me strength for moving any mountainside

I've felt the solid ground beneath my feet

But I've had the bread of idleness while drinking from a well of doubt

And it shakes the core of all I believe

Oh, sometimes I feel like I'm as close as your shadow

Sometimes I feel like I'm looking up at you

From the bottom of the Grand Canyon, so small and so far

From the Grand Canyon with a hole in my heart

And I'm a long way from where I know I need to be

And there's a Grand Canyon between you and me

There's a Grand Canyon between you and me

Sometimes I feel like I'm as close as your shadow

Sometimes I feel like I'm looking up at you

From the bottom of the Grand Canyon, so small and so far

From the Grand Canyon with a hole in my heart

And I'm a long way from where I know I need to be

And there's a Grand Canyon between you and me

And there's a Grand, Grand Canyon between you and me
