Album: Secrets Don't Make Friends
She heads down to the railroad to find her new home
California's not for everyone, yeah
I heard that she was leaving with no rhyme or reason
Left a note said she was on the read
Something's in my chest
Oh, I've got to confess
She's leaving, but she don't know
American girl with a string of pearls
Searching for something more
I could be your world
You could be my girl
I'm the one, I'm the one
I'm the one you're searching for
I woke up in the morning
Looked outside, it's storming
Funnel clouds can't make my smile fade
I bought a one way ticket straight down to Phoenix
She always she liked the desert air
This is all I've got
My one and only shot to tell her what she don't know
American girl with a string of pearls
Searching for something more
I could be your world
You could be my girl
I'm the one, I'm the one
I'm the one you're searching for
Cause we could have it so good
I just know it, so here I go
You've got to know it
So I got off the jet plane with my guitar case
With a smile, I just had to say
American girl with a string of pearls
Searching for something more
I could be your world
You could be my girl
I'm the one, I'm the one
I'm the one you're searching for
You know you're looking for, yeah
You know you're wanting more
Oh, cause I'm the one, I'm the one
I'm the one you're searching for
