"Grand Canyon"
(Mat Kearney / Eli Teplin)

[Chorus:]
Tell me why it feels like there's a Grand Canyon between us
Tell me how you're feeling 'cause I can't stand the distance
You know we started with love
And it still is enough to believe in us
Tell me why it feels like there's a Grand Canyon

The stars don't shine bright if I'm not with you
If we don't align right, you know it's an issue
Come a little closer, we can start talkin'
You can come over, we can sleep on it

[Pre-Chorus:]
And lay it all on the floor
The way we've done it before
The nights you let me inside
Can you let me tonight?

[Chorus:]
Tell me why it feels like there's a Grand Canyon between us
Tell me how you're feeling 'cause I can't stand the distance
You know we started with love
And it still is enough to believe in us
Tell me why it feels like there's a Grand Canyon

I can be patient, you can be honest
I can make space if that's how you want
Feels like I'm waiting on Halley's comet
Now we got space, babe, now we gon' cross it

[Pre-Chorus:]
The times I waited on you
The times we made it on through
The nights you let me inside
Come on, you know it's alright

[Chorus:]
Tell me why it feels like there's a Grand Canyon between us
Tell me how you're feeling 'cause I can't stand the distance
You know we started with love
And it still is enough to believe in us
Tell me why it feels like there's a Grand Canyon

[Bridge:]
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh

[Chorus:]
Tell me why it feels like there's a Grand Canyon between us
Tell me how you're feeling 'cause I can't stand the distance
You know we started with love
And it still is enough to believe in us
Tell me why it feels like there's a Grand Canyon
Between us
