DEAD CAN DANCE lyrics - American Dreaming

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 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 feelings within her



And we'll go dancing in the rings of laughter

And live along by the shores

Fervor on with her arms around she reside alone for the lost



Faith, underneath the rising wind blows

Faith, underneath the rising wind blows

How long how long?



Here alone on the grounds are millions seeds we left behind

Turned back by the fool of the doorway of

Never lost and found



We've been too long American dreaming

I think we've lost: lost the door

Fear on somnambulistic maniacal in the dark



Faith, underneath the rising wind blows

Faith, underneath the rising wind blows

How long how long?
