"Heart Of America" lyrics

"Heart Of America"
(from "The Gray House" soundtrack)

Open arms, guiding light
A beacon of hope in the night
The stars and stripes
A spirit that's always gonna fly
What makes us different
Makes us strong
Together we will carry on

The heart of America
It's still dreamin', dreamin' of things to come
And it's beating, beating like a drum
Oh, the heart of America

It's a hand reaching out
To your brother and your mama and your dad
The freedom in our lungs
To sing a song that's never been sung
And there's room for everyone

The heart of America
It's still dreamin', dreamin' of things to come
And it's beating, beating like a drum
Oh, the heart of America

We've seen it bleed, we've seen it break
When you think it's had all that it can take
It rings out, good and loud
Like the Liberty Bell

The heart of America
It's still dreamin', dreamin' of things to come
And it's beating, beating like a drum
Oh, the heart of America
Oh, the heart of America
America, America
