American Tune
Eva Cassidy Many's the time I've been mistaken And many time confused Many's the time i've felt forsaken And certainly abused But it's alright, it's alright And when I think of another working day You can be forever blessed I just got to get some rest I've got to get some rest I don't know a soul who has not been battered Don't have a friends who feels at ease Or driven to it's knees Don't know a dream that's not been shattered Oh, but it's alright, it's alright We've lived so well so long And when I think of the road we traveled on So far away from home So far away from home And I dreamed I was flying And I dreamed I was dying I dreamed that my soul rose unexpectedly Looking back down at me, smiled reassuredly The statue of liberty sailing away to sea And I dreamed I was flying And high up above my eyes could clearly see We come on the ship they call mayflower And sing the American tune We come in the age's most uncertain hours Come on a ship that sail the moon Oh but it's alright, it's alright Can't be forever blessed And when I think of another working day I've just got to get some rest I just got to get some rest |
