American Spirit

I could have given you the world, but the world was not enough

Not enough to get the truth so I had to call your bluff

So why can't I

Breathe when I

See you?

And why aren't you affected and why can't you admit you left it?

I don't know, don't know, don't know what your problem is, but I bet it's

Hard to pronounce

So why can't our love story have a happy ending for me?

I can't say, can't say, I can't say something nice so I won't say nothing

At all

So why can't our love story have a happy ending for

All the lonely hearts of the world are trying to get home (get home)

Doubt disappearing into the wind. I'm trying to get home

So why can't I

Breathe when I

See you?

I shouldn't have to explain something I never did 'cause I'll be the first

To admit

I don't know, don't know, don't know what your problem is, but I bet it's

Hard to pronounce

So why can't our love story have a happy ending for me

I can't say, can't say, I can't say something nice so I won't say nothing

At all

So why can't our love story have a happy ending for me?

There's an 18 wheel cement truck that's gonna crush every bone in your

Body.

OH!

I could have given you the world, but the world was not enough

I don't know, don't know, don't know what your problem is, but I bet it's

Hard to pronounce

So why can't our love story have a happy ending for me?

I can't say, I can't say something nice so I won't say nothing at all, no I

Won't say nothing at all, no I won't say nothing.

Have a happy ending for me, have a happy ending for me
