lirik lagu this american dream – misty river
he met her at a college dance, the year was ’39
a small town in the midwest, amidst cornfields and sky
he was from a poor family, she was the beauty of the town
he vowed to make her happy to be true to what he’d found
they struggled through the first years, money was tight
had a son and a daughter, they knew were god’s light
he sold insurance on main street and she raised their family
but something was missing from this american dream
chorus:
he said my heart is in the right place
but i can’t go on this way
the things money can’t buy are lacking in my life
and my heart yearns for a new day
and my heart yearns for a new day
he built up his business and put some money down
on a brick house on park street, it was the finest street in town
children waved when they saw him, in church he sang in the choir
he prayed for god to help him fulfill this desire
he sang… chorus
he left on a journey, out to see the west
but he could not put a distance between him and his distress
so he looked to the pacific in hopes of changing his life
and with a heavy heart wrote these words to his wife
he wrote… chorus
the years p-ssed so quickly, his children were full grown
he and his wife now, were back on their own
he said “i seem to have everything, but what fools we mortals be?”
and he p-ssed away quietly from this american dream
and he p-ssed away quietly from this american dream
