We hiked at Zion,
Then in a canyon
Where Ebenezer lost his cow.
Into a love undyin’
I fell for you,
as you said ciao.

You cut and run
While my affection had just begun.
Ain’t no fun,
Look what I’ve done
Made a romance for one. 

We were meant to keep going
But my mistakes pushed you away.
Now I’m left unknowing
If we can have another day.

At the garden of a queen,
And through the hoodoos
In the fondness of each scene,
Is a passion for me to lose.

I waltz down Wall Street
And serenade up the Navajo
Finding in the cold, a heat
From long ago.

Wandering Bryce
Wondering if our dance 
Could come twice.
And why perchance,
I did what I’d done 
Made a romance
for one.
