Lonely American Nights lyrics

A dream that`s old
A song that`s new
Money borrowed, guitar blue
True love tries, but has to fail
When distance, time and space prevail

I can still see the clothes we wore and the bar next door
And the dirty floor and the day we left home for a rock and roll tour of America
There was Milo and me it`s true and the songs we knew and a picture of you
And a beat up van with a guitar in my hand so I could work it through

Lonely American nights
Can make you hungry for the arms of someone new
But put me under the lights
I`d never jeopardize the trust I had with you
And I hope you found yourself another lover with a heart that`s true
Someone to say to you

Hold tight, shine bright, tonight I`ll be coming right home to you
Day light, stay bright, it`s alright I`ll be makin` it home to you

We used to pray for the end of school, for our favorite tune, up in my bedroom
Where I would wait for you baby in the parking lot to get you in the afternoon
Do you remember the way we talked when I dropped you off `till the sun came up
When I awoke to find you sleeping at the opposite end of the telephone

But everything has a price
Ambition ordered me to do what I must do
Another love sacrificed
Another offer to the gods of losing you
And I hope you realize my heart will always hold a place for you
When I used to say to you

Chorus

And where were you baby when the wheels on my bus broke down
And where was I darlin` when you needed me to be around
And I suppose I`ll never find another lover with a heart so true
Someone to say to you

Hold tight
Tonight
Day light
It`s alright

I can still see the cloths we wore and the bar next door
And dirty floor and the day we left home for a rock and roll tour of America
There was Milo and me it`s true and the songs we knew and a picture of you
