I cried at my new kitchen table
As the sun went down
I saw myself in my mind
Black one piece suit
Feeding the fish in your father's pond
Sleeping under blankets
My hair felt so new then

What happened to us?
Where did we go?

I cried, the sun going down
And said out loud
"Why did it have to happen to us?"

I picked myself back up
Like I have so many times before
Leaving, going
Out the door.

Canyon
Finish it up and kiss it goodbye
In the heart of the Canyon

Thats all there is left to do.
