American Dream
written and produced by Sherman Tabor / mixed and mastered by Matthew Thomson
Ooh, there’s something in the air tonight
Think I wanna kiss you outside the bar
You’ve been staying in my head and I
Think I wanna take this way too far
Your island
Calls to me through stormy seas
And I’m dying
To make it to your green light
New York City danced for me
That Summer like she couldn’t see
You were my new skyline
Now I pledge allegiance
To your wild mystery
And you’ll believe it
When you see the way I move my feet
Dancing to your motown beat
Singin’ in the street
Baby, you’re my city
You’re my American dream
Your eyes light possibility
You show me what lovin’ really means
It’s for everyone, and it’s always free
You’re my American dream, my
American dream, my
American dream, my
American dream
Now I remember
When I pulled you to my side
Sitting in the stairwell
Under phosphorescent apartment light
Said you’d be smart to run away now
But if you look back I’ll be right behind
Ooh, there’s something in the air tonight
Think I wanna kiss you outside the bar
You’ve been staying in my head and I
Think I wanna take this way too far
You’re my American dream
Your eyes light possibility
You show me what lovin’ really means
It’s for everyone, and it’s always free
You’re my American dream, my
American dream, my
American dream, my
American dream
Will you be my best friend?
Sit in the garden ‘til it’s late in the evening
Sparks flying overhead?
Will you be my president?
Tell me the state of us
Ice cream drippin’
Can I touch your face again?
Will you be my best friend?
Sit in the garden ‘til it’s late in the evening
Sparks flying overhead?
Will you be my president?
Tell me the state of us
Ice cream drippin’
Can I touch your face again?
Baby can I kiss your face again?
You’re my American dream
Your eyes light possibility
You show me what lovin’ really means
It’s for everyone, and it’s always free
You’re my American dream, my
American dream, my
American dream, my
American dream
