American Dream

there was a girl
 there was a shoreline
 was an american dream
 hear her laughing
 really feels like
 an american dream
 there was a t.v. turned down
 still i heard a scream
 and i woke up
 from my american dream
 how long have i been sleeping?
 how long til i rest in your arms again?
 there was a white rose
 and she shone there
 in an american dream
 through the rocket red glare
 of an american dream
 through the shut blind
 the sunshine, in a broken beam
 woke me up
 from my american dream
 how long have i been sleeping?
 how long til i rest in your arms again?
 i still look for the girl
 along the shoreline
 of an american dream
 the wind on her dress
 waving the bright flag
 of an american dream
