America Testo

Maybe I should've worn my pink sweater,
To make myself look better,
But I thought you knew
Maybe I could've gotten there earlier,
Could've talked to another man than you,
But it was you when you when you didn't really seem to care;
Behind your desk, got work caught in your head,
You're just doing your job, but it's my life on the line
And in the blink of an eye,
You might've ruined...
America
Why do you make it so hard?
Why do you make it so hard?
America
I don't did it no harm
I just wanna be closer
I just wanna be closer to you
(Oh say can you see)

My dream, my dream was crushed in a second
You didn't even give me a chance
To tell you all about my family
My mother, my father, my sisters I haven't
Seen them around, for an eternity
You were my kiddie heaven,
My ticket to the golden state, but instead
You ruined it

America Why do you make it so hard?
Why do you make it so hard?
America
I don't did it no harm
I just wanna be closer
I just wanna be closer to you
(Oh say can you see)

Arts 2020, coming back to Paris after 3 months in the United States of America,
I loved it, I found hope, strength
I saw my family again, I found friends, freedom,
I've found everything I've been looking for
I applied for a visa, I decided that I'd leave everything behind me,
My friends, my life, everything that I had built, for a shot at a greater future
And as I was approved, oh god, tears of joy
Life hasn't always been easy, and that was it
Bye my friends, hello America

America
Why do you make it so hard?
Why do you make it so hard?
Do you make it so hard?
America
I don't did it no harm
I just wanna be closer
Just wanna be closer to you

America
Why do you make it so hard?
Why do you make it so hard?
America
I don't did it no harm
I just wanna be closer
I just wanna be closer to you
(Oh say can you see
By the dawns early light...)
