LYRICS - Note:  Lyrics confirmed by the 2005 Tour program book.  [sic] notations mark the spelling or grammatical errors in that one source.
I need my conscience to keep watch over me
To [sic] protect me from myself
So [sic] I can wear honesty like a crown on my hand
When [sic] I walk into the promised land

We've been too long American dreaming [sic]
I think we've all lost the way [sic]
Forlorn [sic] somnambulistic maniacal in the dark [sic]

I'm in love with an American girl
Well [sic] she's my best friend
I love her surreptitious smile
that hides the pain within her.
And we'll go dancing beside desert waters
Where [sic] love is so wastefully spent.
And dine upon the crumbs of faith
most lovers often reject.

We've been too long American dreaming [sic]
I think we've lost the way [sic]
Forlorn somnambulistic maniacal in the dark.
