In The Great Divide

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

In the canyons of the great divide

Familiar places

that we can run and hide

Are filled with strangers

Walking in our houses alone

In the great divide

Nothing to decide

No one else to care for or love

In the great divide

You won't fit in too well

On the horses of the carousel

She rides alone with you and me

She rides like she knows

Wherever she goes, we'll be there

On the carousel

Life is going well

Anyone can tell, we're in love

On the Carousel

You're gonna like the way you feel

You and I we got caught down there

In the twisted canyons

of the great divide

We walked the floor

Now we don't go there anymore

In the great divide

Nothing to decide

No one else to care for or love

In the great divide

You don't fit in too well

In the great divide

Nothing to decide

No one else to care for or love

In the great divide

You won't fit in too well
