Billy Ocean - City Limit (Expanded Edition)

American Hearts

They were married in September back in 1969
They travelled east to India to find some peace of mind
They stood for love and freedom
They were children of their time, woah, woah

Oh, they lived in a world that was cold and uncaring
Swear they would change it with loving and sharing
They'd never lived like their parents had done
Their innocence shone like the sun

American hearts (American hearts)
So filled with emotion
American hearts (American hearts)
Ooh, so easily broken

Now they've got a family and a cottage in the hills
He's always workin' late to pay the mortgage and the bills
And she has trouble sleeping
So the doctor gives her pills, woah, woah

Ooh, just look at them
Who are these strangers who used to be lovers
Now they got nothin' to say to each other
Too far apart to discuss their mistakes
They file for divorce and to break their

American hearts (American hearts)
So filled with emotion
American hearts (American hearts)
Ooh, so easily broken

All they needed was love
All they needed was love
All they needed was love
Ooh, ooh, yeah

Now that it's over they'll each go on living
Never forgetting but somehow forgiving
They'll care for their children
Protect them with pride
And that's how the dream will survive in

American hearts (American hearts)
So filled with emotion
American hearts (American hearts)
Ooh, so easily broken

American hearts (American hearts)
So filled with emotion
American hearts (American hearts)
Ooh, so easily broken
