The, ah, the, America
You can find her sometime
Sitting by a stream
On her own
All in love
The, ah, the, America
Might show up on Tuesday
At your kitchen door
She will ask politely
Is anybody home
Or did they all lay down
To sleep through the night
And if they all lay down
I'll be waiting for them
And through the night

Riverbed
Once they wake
From their rest
The other
America
Takes herself to night school
To understand the law
She may bring you questions
When she finds the flaw
Why did they all lay down
To sleep through the now
And if they all lay
Down
I'll be waiting
For them
At the riverbed
Once they wake
From their rest
We could be
Opening a doorway
Cleverly, but that's okay
Once upon a time
You had faith
You would not be swayed
By fools untouched
By clairvoyance
And you swore that we'd be brave
Well, not today
No, not today
Because we all
Lay down
To sleep
Through the now
And if we all
Lay down
She'll be waiting
For us
Where the rivers cross
Once we wake
From our rest
All the best
The other
American
