They say Montana has a real big sky
And the Grand Canyon is deep and wide
There's a whole lot of livin that I wanna do
But I'd rather see the world from your point of view

Chorus:
I didn't go to Memphis to see the king
Or ride the Mississippi down to New Orleans
I could've found someone to give my love to
But I've been waiting for you

I've got a little money stashed away
Just sitten on ready for a rainy day
Anticipating escaping with you
Doin all the crazy things that I didn't do

REPEAT CHORUS

Oh, no I didn't wanna settle for just settin down
I was lookin for the right one baby
And that's what I've found

REPEAT CHORUS

I didn't go to Memphis to see the king
Or ride the Mississippi down to New Orleans
I could've found someone to give my love to
But I've been waiting for you

I've been waiting for you
