Album: Bleed
Well, she was an American girl
Raised on promises
She couldn’t help thinking that there was
A little more to life somewhere else
After all it was a great big world
With lots of places to run to Yeah, if she had to die trying
She’d have one little promise she was going to keep
Oh yeah, alright
Take it easy, baby
Make it last all night
She was an American girl
Well, it was kind of cold that night
She stood alone on her balcony
Yeah, she could hear the cars roll by Out on 441
Like waves crashing on the beach
And for one desperate moment there
He crept back in her memory
God, it’s so painful when something
That’s so close is still so far out of reach
Oh yeah, alright
Take it easy, baby
Make it last all night
She was an American girl
