Lyrics American Dream - Giorgio Moroder, Paul Engemann

American Dream

Got to be the best that you can be
So you leave it behind, believing in your dream
On the threshold of what you’ve been told
Got to grab a hold 'cause the streets are paved with gold
You work so hard just to break the ice
Gotta make the dream come true
And you take a chance when you roll the dice
Then it all comes back to you
An American dream came true
The vision coming into view
Now can you hear it calling you?
Somehow I always knew
An American dream came true
An open door that I walked through
I hit it with the cards I drew
Lightning strikes from the blue
It’s calling you
American dream
At the speed of light every night and day
Living on the edge but the dream won’t go away
Follow your plan 'cause you know you can
Make it to the top, wanna hold it in your hand
You work so hard just to break the ice
Gotta make the dream come true
And you take a chance when you roll the dice
Then it all comes back to you
An American dream came true
An open door that I walked through
I hit it with the cards I drew
Lightning strikes from the blue
It’s calling you
American dream
An American dream came true
The vision coming into view
Now can you hear it calling you?
Somehow I always knew
An American dream came true
An open door that I walked through
I hit it with the cards I drew
Lightning strikes from the blue
An American dream came true
