Oh, there's something in the air tonight
Think I want to kiss you outside the bar
You've been staying in my head and I
Think we're gonna take this way too far
Your island calls to me through stormy seas
And I'm dyin' to make it to your green light
New York City danced for me that Summer
Like she didn'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, I'm singing in the streets
"Baby, you're my city"
You're my American dream
Your eyes light possibility
And you show me what loving really means
It's for everyone and it's always free
Your my American dream, my American dream
My American dream, my American dream
I remember when I pulled you to my side
Sitting in the stairwell under phosphorescent apartment lights
I said you'd be smart to run away now
But if you look back I'll be right behind you
Oh, there's something in the air tonight
Think I want to kiss you outside the bar
You've been staying in my head and I
Think we're gonna take this way too far
You're my American dream
Your eyes light possibility
And you show me what loving really means
It's for everyone and it's always free
Your 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 dripping
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 dripping
Can I touch your face again?
Baby, can I kiss your face again?
You're my American dream
Your eyes light possibility
And you show me what loving really means
It's for everyone and it's always free
Your my American dream, my American dream
My American dream, my American dream
