America

I CAN'T GO BACK TO YOU AMERICA

BECAUSE IT HURTS TOO MUCH TO LEAVE

AND I CAN'T STAY FOR ALL ETERNITY

BECAUSE I GOT MY OWN HOME AND FAMILY.

I CANT GO BACK TO YOU AMERICA,

TO HIGH DESERT OR PALM TREES.

IF I CAN'T STAY FOR ALL ETERNITY

THEN I NEED TO LET YOU BE.

WE CANT START AGAIN

BECAUSE I CAN'T TAKE THE PAIN FROM PARTING WAYS

WITH YOU AGAIN AMERICA.

I CAN'T GO BACK TO YOU AMERICA

BECAUSE IT HURTS TOO MUCH TO SEE ALL THE BEAUTY

THAT WILL NEVER BE,

NEVER BE A PART OF ME.

WE CAN'T START AGAIN

BECAUSE I CAN'T TAKE THE PAIN FROM PARTING WAYS

WITH YOU AGAIN AMERICA.

ALL THE BEAUTY THAT WILL NEVER BE,

NEVER BE A PART OF ME.

WE CAN'T START AGAIN

BECAUSE I CANT TAKE THE PAIN FROM PARTING WAYS

WITH YOU AGAIN AMERICA.
