Artist: Dead Can Dance
Song: American Dreaming
Lryics:
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
I think we've all lost the way
Fear long somnambulistic maniacal in the dark
I'm in love with an American girl
Well she's my best friend
I love her surreptitious smile
That hides the pain within her
And we'll go dancing in rings of laughter
The Nibelung by the shores
Fear long in the bounds of raptures
And even long for the loss
Yea-- on a lea the rising wind blows
Fey-- on a lea the rising wind blows
How long how long?
Fear long in the grounds of allegiances we 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
Yea-- on a lea the rising wind blows
Fey-- on a lea the rising wind blows
How long how long?
