lyrics

I left early in the morning to arrive at the place I should be
I made sure I was a ghost I made sure I was a nomad in the land of the free
the sky had that color that early faint glow that deep dark blue
I went over the mountains and as I got closer it shifted its hue

I want to go to America
I want to go to America

I heard westward it was different heard it was quiet and built for a ghost
ancient trees grow like mountains they climb through the air they scatter the coast
it was different as promised we all could agree it was worse than before
from a time unremembered sealed inside bottles and washing ashore

I want to go to America
I want to go to America

wouldn't you think it would be different?
wouldn't you think it would be nice?
if we could spend the day together
and the night on ice

I want to go to America
I want to go to America

I left early in the morning the sky was still dark just tinted by sun
I got lost in the aether the spin of the planet that cancerous one
god bless the fields of grain and god bless the rocks and the wood
we have our own ideas of how distance should be understood

I want to go to America
I want to go to America
