I Didn't Move To Arizona For The Weather
The fire went out for us in California
Before I crossed the Arizona line
Not sure what lies ahead or am I caring
But I sure know I'm leavin' you behind
They say the climate here is good for healing
And healing is the one thing my heart needs
Maybe I will find a way in Arizona
To get over you like you got over me
(Chorus)
I didn't move to Arizona for the weather
I didn't move to Arizona for my health
I came here to rise up from the ashes
And maybe light another fire with someone else
I hear the desert air in Arizona
Can warm a soul and heal one's wounded pride
Seems like the perfect place for starting over
You don't care anymore so why should I
I didn't move to Arizona for the weather
Though I know my broken heart needs tending to
Slowly I'm forgettin' what we had together
Arizona is my last goodbye to you
(Repeat Chorus)
