Just a melancholy echo
Lingering when the day is through
It's the call of the canyon
Once again I'm dreaming of you

Every night I search the moonlight
Up and down the river shore
It's the call of the canyon
Maybe I will see you once more

Standing there alone by the ashes
Of the fire we said would never die
Will I ever find an ember
Burning from the days gone by

Then I hear a lonely whisper
As a little spark I see
It's the call of the canyon
Bringing back your answer to me

Now I hear a lonely whisper
As a little spark I see
It's the call of the canyon
Bringing back your answer to me
