America

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
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, 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

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 (Oh, oh-oh)
Lift me up
Give me strength to press on
