Songtext von An American Hymn

I have seen a summer day That slowly opens like a rose Along a quiet road that wanders by And I have smiled and wondered Where it goes I have stumbled through the night Alone as any man can be Then found a silent canyon full of stars And in my heart I heard them telling me I was home The gentle winds The rains that fall The tallest trees and I'm part of it all I've seen the silver mountain tops And golden prairies on my way Now everywhere I go across the land I stand so proudly in the sun and say I am home I've dreamed of Eden all my life I find it more and more each day Now everywhere I go across the land I stand so proudly in the sun and say I am home
