America

Real life is make-believe

All that glitters isn't gold for me

Save me from everyone

Oh, oh, oh oh

Bite your tongue, don't say anything

You look perfect in this light to me

Save me from everything

Oh, oh, oh oh

They say we can't stay in America

You can be free in America

But I'm sick of listening to everyone

I just want you, oh

I just want you, oh

I just want you, oh

Close your eyes, take it slow

We will find a new place to go

This will all be over soon

Oh, oh, oh oh

And if the stripes keep us apart

I will write your name up in the stars

Keep myself close to you

Oh, oh, oh oh

They say we can't stay in America

You can be free in America

But I'm sick of listening to everyone

I just want you, oh

I just want you, oh

I just want you, oh

Heavy-hearted and I feel so cold

The nights are longer than I've ever known

Wherever you are, come and get me now

(Come and get me now)

When we started, it was long ago

It was perfect and well, yeah it was perfect

Wherever you are, come and get me now

(Come and get me now)

(Come and get me now)

They say we can't stay in America

You can be free in America

But I'm sick of listening to everyone

I just want you, oh

They say we can't stay in America

You can be free in America

But I'm sick of listening to everyone

I just want you, oh

I just want you, oh

I just want you, oh
