American Dream - Remastered

America is essentially a dream
It is a dream of a land where men of all races
Of all nationalities and of all creeds
Can live together as brothers

I wish I could live in a fantasy world
Where everything is just make believe
Where nothing is wrong in the words of my song
Your love is all I ever need

When I turn to the time
That my heart wasn't mine
Baby I'm lost, lost, lost in my own reality
But all you got to do is baby, hold
Hold on to me
When I'm not that free
Your love, your love is all that I need

Woah (American dream)
American dream (American dream)
Roaming the hills
(Rainbows and blue skies)
Everyday (bright up my day)
And I love the children
(Children run free in the home of the brave)
I'm talking about my beautiful (American dream)
American dream

I wish I could fly
Like an arrow through time
To the arms that my destiny hold
When war, war is all gone
And my father comes home
Our love will never, never, never, never grow old

When I turn to the time
That my heart, that my heart wasn't mine
Baby I'm lost, lost, lost in my own reality
But all you got to do, baby, is just hold
Hold on to me
Can't you see I'm not that free?
Your love, your love, your love is all that I ever need

American dream

I have a dream this afternoon
That the brotherhood of man will become a reality in this day, with this faith
I will go out and carve a tunnel of hope
Through the mountain of despair with this faith
I will go out with you and transform dark yesterdays into bright tomorrows
With this faith, we will be able to achieve this new day

(American dream)
I want everybody to lift up their voices and help me sing this song
(Rainbows and the blue skies) rainbows, blue skies
(Bright up my day)
(Children run free in the land of the brave)
