LyricMeaning

American Dreaming
Dead Can Dance

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 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 feelings within her

And we'll go dancing in the rings of laughter

And live along by the shores

Fervor on with her arms around she reside alone for the lost

Faith, underneath the rising wind blows

Faith, underneath the rising wind blows

How long how long?

Here alone on the grounds are millions seeds we left behind

Turned back by the fool of the doorway of

Never lost and found

We've been too long American dreaming

I think we've lost: lost the door

Fear on somnambulistic maniacal in the dark

Faith, underneath the rising wind blows

Faith, underneath the rising wind blows

How long how long?
