About America

[00:23.24] She came down from the hills in the dead of night
[00:28.10] Silver jewellery flashing in the half moonlight
[00:32.85] Hair across her face, and all that she could taste
[00:36.92] Were her tears as they dried
[00:42.07] There she found her love, he was gone for good
[00:46.72] Heaven out of reach now she understood
[00:51.33] In all the human race no one could replace
[00:55.43] All the fears in her eyes
[01:00.14] So I sang that song for her about America
[01:05.22] The one we use to sing, dreaming we were there
[01:09.95] And all the words were lost, they were lost on her
[01:19.27]
[01:40.48] Even though she knew it would never last
[01:44.81] She looked into the future and she saw the past
[01:49.79] Green eyes of the child, similarly wild
[01:53.88] As the years passed her by
[01:58.35] So I sang that song for her about America
[02:03.54] The one we use to sing dreaming we were there
[02:08.19] And all the words were lost, they were lost on her
[02:18.84] Lost on her, they were lost, they were lost
[02:23.42] Lost on her, they were lost, they were lost
[02:28.10] Lost on her
[02:36.25] Following her footsteps to the place they met
[02:41.02] Carving out his name, never to forget
[02:45.63] Now their child sings, as memories begin
[02:49.64] To disappear from her mind
[02:54.48] So I sang that song for her about America
[02:59.55] The one we use to sing dreaming we were there
[03:04.29] And all the words were lost, they were lost on her
[03:14.84] Lost on her, they were lost, they were lost
[03:19.45] Lost on her, they were lost, they were lost
[03:24.19] Lost on her
[03:31.49]
