Paul Simon - American Tune слова песни
Words & music by Paul Simon
Many`s the time I`ve been mistaken
And many times confused
Yes, and often felt forsaken
And certainly misused
Oh, but I`m alright, I`m alright
I`m just weary to my bones
Still, you don`t expect to be
Bright and bon vivant
So far a-way from home, so far away from home
I don`t know a soul who`s not been battered
I don`t have a friend who feels at ease
I don`t know a dream that`s not been shattered
or driven to its knees
Oh, but it`s alright, it`s alright
for we lived so well so long
Still, when I think of the
road we`re traveling on
I wonder what`s gone wrong
I can`t help it, I wonder what`s gone wrong
And I dreamed I was dying
I dreamed that my soul rose unexpectedly
And looking back down at me
Smiled reassuringly
And I dreamed I was flying
And high up above my eyes could clearly see
The Statue of Liberty
Sailing away to sea
And I dreamed I was flying
We come on the ship they call the Mayflower
We come on the ship that sailed the moon
We come in the a-ge`s most uncertain hours
and sing an American tune
Oh, and it`s alright, it`s alright, it`s alright
You can`t be forever blessed
Still, tomorrow`s going to be another working day
And I`m trying to get some rest
That`s all I`m trying to get some rest
