"American Dream" lyrics

"American Dream"

Oh, you're in New, New York, everybody is cool
I took a long, long flight from Liverpool
To a place that never, ever sleeps
So I'm an English boy with an American dream

Walking in Central Park
Trying to find my feet but the street got dark
I've seen things you won't believe
Oh, I'm an English boy with an American dream

I'm gonna write my name on the dotted lines
Sign away my life for a dozen dimes
And I'm surrounded but still alone
And if all goes well I won't be coming home

So I walk through Central Park
Trying to find my feet but the street got dark
And I've seen things you've never seen
Oh, I'm an English boy with an American dream
Two, three, four

Oh, I'm an English boy with an American dream
English boy with an American dream
English boy with an American dream
Oh, I'm an English boy with an American dream
