I need my conscience to keep watch over me To protect me from myself So I can wear honesty like a crown on my head When I walk into the promised land We've been too long American dreaming And I think we've all lost the way Forlorn somnambulistic maniacal in the dark I'm in love with an American girl Though she's my best friend I love her surreptitious smile That hides the pain within her And we'll go dancing in the rings of laughter And live along by the shores The Nibelung* by the shores Fear long in the bounds of raptures And even long for the loss Yeah-ee, on the lea the rising wind blows Fay-hee, on the lea the rising wind blows How long how long? fear lon in the grounds of allegiances we've left behind Turnban** by the foot of the doorway Never lost and found We've been too long American dreaming I think we've all lost the heart fear long somnambulistic maniacal in the dark Yeah-ee, on the lea the rising wind blows Fay-hee, on the lea the rising wind blows How long how long? |
