Harry Chapin - A Quiet Little Love Affair lyrics

Your rating:


When I met America, I didn't know her name

But it seems she was something special even then

I knew it just the same



Yes, I loved the things she stood for

Help the helpless make people free

And I knew that an American is what I wanted to be



It was the start of a little love affair

between my country and me

Oh, oh, my country tis of thee



Well we both grew up, things were good

Things that we had known

Some said we had lost something

Some said we had grown



Well time keeps rolling by my friend,

Things can never die.

But I had always wonder what would happen,

Wondered when and why,



What would happen to our little love affair,

Between my country and me,

Oh, oh, my country tis of thee,



Oh, time went by and I forgot,

Why I fell in love,

Though I still pledge my allegiance,

And soon I would wave the flag above,



Didn't know why what we'd done,

Didn't know where it flowed,

Well I never knew if we had lost,

If we had grown,



It was the last of a little love affair,

Between my country and me,

(back ground: Oh say can you see, my country tis of thee)

Oh, oh, my country tis of thee.
