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

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 sittin' on ready for a rainy day
Anticipating escaping with you
Doin' all the crazy things that I didn't do

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

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

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
