The Hands That Built America lyrics

Oh my love, it's a long way we've come From the freckled hills, to the steel and glass canyons From the stony fields, to hanging steel from the sky From digging in our pockets, for a reason not to say goodbye These are the hands that built America Ah, America Last saw your face, in a water colour sky As seabirds argue, a long goodbye I took your kiss on the spray of the new land star You gotta live in your dreams, don't make them so hard, oh And these are the hands that built America Ah, America Of all of the promises, is this one we could keep? Of all of the dreams, is this one still out of reach? Halle, ole It's early fall, there's a cloud on the New York skyline Innocence, dragged across a yellow line These are the hands that built America These are the hands that built America Ah, America Ah, America
