Dave Stewart - American Prayer lyrics

rate me

This is my American prayer<br />

This is my American prayer<br />

This is the time to finish what you've started<br />

And this is no time to dream<br />

<br />

This is my American prayer<br />

And this is the room<br />

We can turn off the dark tonight<br />

Maybe then we might see<br />

<br />

This is my American prayer<br />

American prayer<br />

American prayer<br />

<br />

And this is the ground that keeps our feet from getting wet<br />

And this is the sky over our head<br />

And what you see depends on where you stand<br />

And how you jump will tell you where you're gonna land<br />

<br />

American prayer<br />

American prayer<br />

<br />

My, oh, my, couldn't get much higher<br />

Let's not kick out the darkness<br />

Make the light brighter<br />

<br />

And these are the hands<br />

What are we gonna build with them?<br />

And this is the church you can't see<br />

<br />

And remember, give me your tired<br />

Your poor and huddled masses<br />

You know they're yearning to breathe free<br />

<br />

This is my American prayer<br />

American prayer<br />

American prayer<br />

<br />

When you get to the top of the mountain<br />

Will you tell me what you see?<br />

If you get to the top of the mountain<br />

Remember me<br />

<br />

If you get to the top of the mountain<br />

Will you tell me what you see?<br />

If you get to the top of the mountain<br />

Remember me<br />

<br />

If you get to the top of the mountain<br />

Will you tell me what you see?<br />

If you get to the top of the mountain<br />

Remember me
