National Anthem (Interlude)

11.National Anthem

.

I never will forget you my American love

And I''ll always remember you, wild as they come

And though if I saw you I''d pretend not to know

The place where you were in my heart is now closed

I already live with too many ghosts

.

Now everybody, lately, is living up in space

Flying through transmissions on invisible airwaves

With everything discovered just waiting to be known

What''s left for God to teach from His throne?

And who will forgive us when He''s gone?

.

So take what you need now, honey

And do what you like

Don''t worry about me, mama, I''m alright.

And I can''t stand the weather, no, I never liked the rain

We drink on the job, then we go home early

And I remember she used to look so good in that dress

Now she just screams how I promised her more than this

Take it easy baby, it ain''t over yet

.

So take what you need now, honey

And do what you like

Don''t worry about me, mama, I''m alright

And if there''s something you need...

And if there''s something you find...

Whatever gets you through the night

Whatever gets you through the night

And I never will forget you my American love

And I''ll always remember you wild as they do come
