Heart Of America - The Colourfield

The sun spangled morning

That wakes up the city

With sidewalks all glitter and gold

I sit on the edge of my bed

Hoping that something

Will take me down to tinsel town road

And I dream of the heart of America

Where the fires are burning so bright

And I scream for the heart of America

With my eyes open wide and a yearning inside

Yesterday the thorn of misfortune was bleeding you

And nobody shared your ups and your downs

But tomorrow, somebody somewhere will love you

'Cos the love that you lost

Is the luck that we found

Let’s go find the heart of America

We’ll storm the jailhouse and throw down the keys

Let’s do what they do in the picture shows

Tear down the fences

Put up a playground

And set ourselves free

The dreamboat a sailing out yonder

Is calling us

We can’t stay afloat any longer

We’re falling

Let’s be dreamers and sail upon it

Let’s believe and live out our promises

Deep in the heart of America

Where it sparkles with neon and stars

We’ll keep reaching out for a miracle

'Cos no one will care or know who we are

Let’s go find the heart of America

We’ll storm the jailhouse and throw down the keys

Let’s do what they do in the picture shows

Tear down the fences

Put up a playground

And set ourselves free

I dream of the heart of America

Where the fires are burning so bright

I scream on the heart of America

With my eyes open wide and a yearning inside
