America lyrics

Is this just an illusion

That I made inside my head to get me by?

20 years in debt

20 years in the government

20 years can never get me by

Then I feel you close

Feel you close like you wanted me to

Feel you close like you wanted me to

Believe in you

Rise to the top of the world, America

America, don't you cry

Lift me up

Give me strength to press on

Rise to the top of the world, America

America, don't you cry

Lift me up

Give me strength to press on

From farmers in the fields

To the tallest of the towers that fall and rise

1-7-7-6

The names upon the list

For all the ones that gave until they died

Don't you hold back

I can see in your mind, and your mind will set you free

And I feel you close

Feel you close like you wanted me to

Feel you close like you wanted me to

Believe in you

Rise to the top of the world, America

America, don't you cry

Lift me up

Give me strength to press on

Rise to the top of the world, America

America, don't you cry

Lift me up

Give me strength to press on

Rise to the top of the world, America

America, don't you cry

Lift me up

Give me strength to press on

Rise to the top of the world, America

America, don't you cry

Lift me up

Give me strength to press on
