America Lyrics - Singles - Joni Fuller

In the fading light, she stumbles and falls 

Too tired to cry, too proud to call 

In a movie scene, played over again 

Might as well just pretend 

Dream of America 

At least anywhere but here 

Singing your freedom song 

When theres no-one to hear 

Youre leaving some day 

And youll put on your black beret 

Strangers pass you by, alone in your room 

Dont need no-one, youre leaving soon 

Turning out the light, case in the hall 

Waiting for you to make the call 

Just look to the west-side 

With a whispered prayer, the saints dont reply 

Might as well close your eyes 

Dream of America 

At least anywhere but here 

Singing your freedom song 

When theres no-one to hear 

Youre leaving some day 

And youll put on your black beret
