The Grand Canyon
on the Beautiful Terror of Taking a Chance on Someone New
No, I can't say I've fallen for you yet
but, I've been walking right along the edge
and I know it sounds stupid, but I've been
thinking about just jumping right in,
just trusting you right from the beginning...
but, I ain't goin' nowhere without you holding my hand.

Oh, yes, I've seen you out here wandering
a little further out from the ledge;
I've seen you out here, thinking about it
after you dusted off a place for me to sit.
So, I've been sitting out here kicking my feet,
seeing how far my voice will carry,
singing songs til you come sit with me
and maybe we can talk about it,
cause I don't care where you've been
only where you plan on goin'.

No, I can't say I've fallen for you yet,
but I've been walking right along the edge.
Oh, yes, I have been testing the limits
and I know it sounds stupid, but I've been
thinking about just jumping right in,
just trusting you right from the beginning...
but I ain't goin' nowhere without you holding my hand.

Baby, you can take your time pondering.
Let me know when you're ready.
Would you look at this view?
It's never ending. Isn't it thrilling?
So many possibilities.
Baby, let me tell you, I am trembling
but I am ready
whenever you are.
-
No, I haven't fallen for you yet,
but I've been thinking about it.
