AMERICAN DREAM

Give me something to believe in Give me something I can trust Give me more than just a feeling Give me something when my hope's gone I'm holding on to You Give me more than picket fences And a house beneath the stars Something rust can't hold to ransom Something I can give my whole heart I'm holding on to You Empires of flags They rise and they fall But You sit above And beyond all I know Oh, say can You see I know You're more Than an American Dream Give me something to believe in Give me something I can trust I need mercy like a river I need justice like a flood God I'm holding on to You Parties have lines They claim You can't cross But You sit above And beyond all the stars Oh, say can You see I know You're more Than an American Dream Freedom comes and freedom goes But who You free is free for sure Until You come and make it right We'll sing it out into the night Empires of flags They rise and they fall But Yours is the Kingdom They can't overthrow Oh, say can You see I know you're better than You're higher than You're more than an American Dream
