Youssef, As long as you have a route information towards your tunnel destination (including the default 0/0), your interface will stay up since there are no GRE keepalive mechanisms.
As a workaround against link failures, I would suggest configuring a dynamic routing protocol using tunnel interfaces on both ends and rely on that protocol's keepalives to detect link failures. Of course, you'll need to be careful and avoid possible loops while doing that.
