Blood In My Eyes
I'm not sure what I did just yet
But something kicked in on the night we met
Look's like her hearts out of control
What she's gonna do next, I don't know
She's already dreaming about a house on the hill
How does she think we're gonna pay those bills
When all I can afford is a two room shack
I took her to the moon and I can't bring her back
Now where did my fishing magazines go
Everywhere I look there's another Cosmo
Flowers in the kitchen and a new bedspread
Now you tell me, was it something I said
Even old blue's taking i
American Hearts
(Dominic Bugatti, Frank Musker)
They were married in September back in 1969
They traveled east to India to find some peace of mind
They stood for love and freedom
They were children of their time, wo wo
They lived in a world that was cold and uncaring
They swore they would change it with love and sharing
They never lived like their parents had done
Their innocence shone like the sun
(Chorus)
American hearts, so filled with emotion
American hearts, so easily broken
Now they've got a family and a cottage in the hills
He's always working late to pay the mortgage and the bills
And she has trouble sleeping so the doctor gives her pills, wo wo
Who are these strangers who used to be lovers?
Now they've got nothing to say to each other
Too far apart to discuss their mistakes
They fought with divorce and it breaks their
(Chorus)
Now that it's over, they each go on living
Never forgetting but somehow forgiving
They'll care for their children
Protect them with pride
And that's how the dream will survive in
(Repeat Chorus)
