Far away in Grand Canyon

I've had a girl, I loved her oh so much,
She said to me, everytime I touched:
My friend you could be the man of my life,
But you are poor, so I won't be your wife.

I've lost my heart far away in Grand Canyon,
I've searched for gold, all alone on my own;
When I came back from the desert of Grand Canyon,
I had (some) gold, but my heart was death and cold.

I went for her to search a lot of gold,
To the Grand Canyon from which the people told:
That it's the place where everyting will change,
Now I know they're right, 'cause I became so strange.

I've lost my heart far away in Grand Canyon,
I've searched for gold, all alone on my own;
When I came back from the desert of Grand Canyon,
I had (some) gold, but my heart was death and cold.
