Grand Canyon

Susan Ashton


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 
Sometimes I feel like I'm as close as your shadow 
And 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 
When 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 
Sometimes I feel like I'm as close as your shadow 
And sometimes I feel like I'm looking up at you from the bottom of the. 

When there's a Grand Canyon between you and me. 

Sometimes I feel like I'm as close as your shadow 
And sometimes I feel like I'm looking up at you from the bottom of the. 

When there's a Grand, Grand Canyon between you and me...
