Bobby Womack - American Dream Lyrics

Lyrics American Dream - Bobby Womack



America is essentially a dream
It is a dream of a land where men of all races
Of all nationalities and of all creeds
Can live together as brothers
I wish I could live in a fantasy world
Where everything is just make believe
Where nothing is wrong in the words of my song
And your love is all I never need
When I turn to the time
That my heart were just mine
Baby I lost, lost, lost in my own reality
But all I've got to do, baby, is hold
Hold on to me
When I'm not that free
Your love, your love is all that I need
American dream
American dream
American dream
I never hear you
Rainbows and the blue skys
Everyday
Made all my day
Children born free in the world of today
I'm talking about my beautiful American dream
American dream
I wish I could fly
Like an...
To the arms that --- just ---
When war, war has just gone
And my father come home
My love will never, never, never, never grow
When I turn to the time
That my heart, that my heart were just mine
Baby I lost, lost, lost in my own reality
But all I've got to do, baby, is just hold
Hold on to me
Can't you see I'm not that free
Your love, your love, your love is all that I need
American dream
I have a dream this afternoon
That the brotherhood of man will become a reality in this day.
And with this faith
I will go out and carve a tunnel of hope through the mountain of despair.
With this faith,
I will go out with you and transform dark yesterdays into bright tomorrows.
With this faith, we will be able to achieve this new day
American dream
Rainbows and the blue skys
Everyday
Made all my day
Children born free in the world of today
American dream
Rainbows and the blue skys
Everyday
Made all my day
Children born free in the world of today
