Tom Cochrane - Calling America lyrics

Your rating:

I dreamt I was a refugee

Who lived outside of town

My family in a barria shack

Battered and run down



We had a friend from America

Helped out, we took him in

Like my brother he disappeared

They said he was with him



There we were far out at sea

Somehow we got lost

Then we landed hard on shore

There upon the rocks

While celebration shook the air

We turned to hear some shots

There's ones that have been here far too long

We think they've lost the plot



Here I go again

Leaving things out while I'm leaving things in

Where, where should I begin

Feeling so full or feeling so thin



Calling America

Man I know you're out there

Sisters are you breathing



Calling America

This thing they call America

It really is a dream



Then I stood face to face

With a girl that I once knew

She was dressed in gingham there

In colors red, white and blue

The more I spoke, the less she heard

And then she slipped away

I just stood there sinking

Far beneath the waves



Here we go again

Leaving things out while we're leaving things in

Where, where should we begin

Feeling so full or feeling so thin



Calling America

Man I know you're out there

Can't you hear me calling



Calling America

Sister are you out there

Can't you feel me dreaming



Calling America

This thing they call America

Really what does it mean



Calling America

This thing they call America

It really is a dream



Here we go again

Leaving things out while we're leaving things in

Where, where should we begin

Feeling so full or feeling so thin



Calling America

Man I know you're out there

Sister are you breathing



Calling America

This thing they call America

It really is a dream



Calling America

Sister are you out there

Can't you feel me breathing



Calling America

Sister are you out there

Can't you feel me breathing



Calling America

This thing they call America

Really what does it mean
