America Songtext / Lyric

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, ooh



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



1776

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, ooh

Rise to the top of the world



America

America don't you cry

Lift me up (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

(Musical Break)

Rise to the top of the world

America

America don't you cry

Lift me up (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
