IN AMERICAN SPIRIT

(MOMENT OF REFLECTION)

I had many sons, I had many sons and

everything was done and everything was done,

I had many sons, I had many sons,

I told them they must go, to live lives on their own,

I had many sons, I had many sons and

everything was done and everything was done

I had daughters too, I had daughters too,

but nothing I could do, but nothing I could do,

I had daughters too, I had daughters too,

red sun crossed the bright blue sky, I gave them a kiss goodbye,

I had daughters too, I had daughters too,

but nothing I could do, but nothing I could do

Are you afraid to go to a distance,

are you afraid o my friend

You could be the one, or just another circumstance,

lying in the sun, oasis in desert sand

When I try to wake, when I try to wake,

I think it is mistake, I think it is mistake,

when I try to wake, when I try to wake,

sailors drink their cups of tears and light is shining midst of fears,

when I try to wake, when I try to wake,

I think it is mistake, I think it is mistake

Yes I guessed that day, yes I guessed that day,

it was a yesterday, it was a yesterday,

yes I guessed that day, yes I guessed that day,

when the legions crossed the ocean and my love was in the motion,

yes I guessed that day, yes I guessed that day,

it was a yesterday, it was a yesterday

Are you afraid to go to a distance,

are you afraid o my friend

You could be the one, or just another circumstance,

gesture that sends clouds, silver rain to no men's land

I lived my life, yes I lived my life,

in regrets and sorrows, in regrets and sorrows,

yes I lived my life, yes I lived my life,

then they came their skin was pale and they just missed my fairy tale,

yes I lived my life, yes I lived my life,

in regrets and sorrows, in regrets and sorrows

Now I live my life, now I live my life,

like there's no tomorrow, like there's no tomorrow,

now I live my life, now I live my life,

I have no one more to please and this just puts me at ease,

now I live my life, now I live my life,

like there's no tomorrow, like there's no tomorrow

Are you afraid to go to a distance,

are you afraid o my friend

You could be the one, or just another circumstance,

kiss that stops the gun, saves a life in promised land
