ALEXZ JOHNSON - American Dreamer lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

Saw it on the table

I’m young and I’m able, uh-huh

Driving your mustang

I’m dumb and I’m trusting, uh-huh

Someone please stop me

The shadows can’t catch me, uh-huh

You take all of me, then throw it like leaves, uh-huh

(Verse)

Caught up in cages, in minimum wages, uh-huh

I’ve love lost in sorrow, I’ll see you tomorrow, uh-huh

Who needs a tight rope when walking on new hope, uh-huh

Can always believe with a dream up your sleeve, uh-huh

(Pre-Chorus)

So come here, come here

Come here, come here

Stay with me ’til dawn

So come here, come here

Come here, come here

We’re both already on

(Chorus)

Oh, American Dreamer

Like zeppelins we’re up, up in the clouds

American Dreamer

We dream and we won’t be here for long

When everything’s hopeless, you follow a compass, uh-huh

I’ll use what you give me, like kites when it’s windy, uh-huh

And heroes get boring, it’s part of their glory, uh-huh

You can’t let it get you halfway when I met you, uh-huh

(Pre-Chorus)

Come here, come here

Come here, come here

Stay with me ’til dawn

So come here, come here

Come here, come here

We’re both already on

(Chorus)

Oh, American Dreamer

Like zeppelins we’re up, up in the clouds

American Dreamer

We dream and we won’t be here for long

(Bridge)

Tide is high but I’m holding on

Water will rise but I’m not sailing home

Tide is high, I’m holding on

The sun’s coming up but our night’s still young

(Pre-Chorus)

So come here, come here

Come here, come here

Stay with me ’til dawn

So come here, come here

Come here, come here

We’re both already on

(Chorus)

Oh, American Dreamer

Like zeppelins we’re up, up in the clouds

American Dreamer

We dream and we won’t be here for long…

(Bridge)

Tide is high but I’m holding on

Waters rise, I’m not sailing home

Tide is high, I’m holding on

The sun’s coming up but our night’s still young
