[Verse 1]
You'd never seen the desert
You grew up in the Tennessee hills
I said if we lasted five more months you will
So I took you to the Grand Canyon
And you said it looked like Mars
You were more mesmerized by me than a sky full of stars
[Chorus]
This could be a landslide
And this could be a long ride home
And you could be the wrong guy
Or the greatest love that I've known
I whisper under my breath
You know I'm scared to death
We're standing on the edge right now and you say, "Don't look down"
[Verse 2]
You make small talk with my father
You're a kind and gentle man
You leave notes around my house just because you can
I got a pocket full of Post-it's
Of all our inside jokes
And I tell you all the secrets no one else knows
[Chorus]
This could be a landslide
And this could be a long ride home
And you could be the wrong guy
Or the greatest love that I've known
I whisper under my breath
You know I'm scared to death
We're standing on the edge right now and you say, "Don't look down"
[Bridge]
You could fall out of love
And it would make me fall apart
And I'd spend every day wonderin' how you are
[Chorus]
This could be a landslide
And this could be a long ride home
And you could be the wrong guy
Or the greatest love that I've known
I whisper under my breath
You know I'm scared to death
We're standing on the edge right now and you say, "Don't look down"
[Outro]
So I took you to the Grand Canyon
And you said it looked like Mars
You were more mesmerized by me than a sky full of stars
