I was born on a rock in the middle of the ocean Where the wind's so rough it can carry you to London It's a new found land with an old soul reaching For the light of day My parents gave me a life full of dreams Yeah they gave me a heart to endure most anything But everyone gets a broken pair of wings And if you try to fly you'll fail But a voice said "Lift up your head" And my heart burst out of my chest I woke up in America for the love of God I woke up in America for something bigger than myself More than fireworks and fanfare More than a star-spangled banner You're still beautiful America Yeah it's late in the night and I look in the mirror Count the lines on my face and wonder how they got there Oh but every one's a story of how grace appeared And carried me through the day And the voice said, "this land ain't dead" You still got better days up ahead I woke up in America for the love of God Letras de cancionesI woke up in America for something bigger than myself More than fireworks and fanfare More than a star-spangled banner You're still beautiful America I've seen the horizon ablaze in Arizona Shoreline shoutin' over California Moonlight dancin' over the Dakotas It breaks your heart, it's so beautiful Lady Liberty, she leaves the light on From the west side all the way to Long Island Carolina Coast to the Rocky Mountains The sun is shining over me I woke up in America for the love of God I woke up in America for something bigger than myself More than wealth or depression More than a red or blue nation Here in our hells and our heaven You're still beautiful America You're beautiful America You're beautiful America From Letras Mania
