American Dreaming (Live Remastered) - Dead Can Dance (逝者善舞)

Written by：Brendan Perry

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've

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 pain within her

And we'll go dancing

In the rings of laughter

And live along by the shores

Here alone in the grounds around

To your seed alone

For a lose

Faith on the lea

The rising wind blows

Faith on the lea

The rising wind blows

How long how long

Here alone on the grounds are

Millions of seeds

We've left behind

Turned back by

The foot of the doorway

Never lost and found

We've been too long

American dreaming

I think we've all

Lost lost the door

Fear on somnambulistic

Maniacal in the dark

Faith on the lea

The rising wind blows

Faith on the lea

The rising wind blows

How long how long
