| Ever since i can remember
|
| I have seen you in my dreams
|
| And the chance to be a part of you
|
| I can’t tell you what it means
|
| As a stranger on a journey
|
| You have made me feel at home
|
| In the shelter of your tender care
|
| I have never felt alone
|
| America
|
| Like so many men before
|
| America
|
| I found all my dreams-and more
|
| Waiting at your door
|
| America
|
| In this land where freedom grew
|
| America
|
| I will sing in praise of you
|
| And be grateful to
|
| America
|
| Other men may take for granted
|
| Things that thrill me every day.
|
| Could your wonders be more clear to me
|
| Coming from so far away?
|
| As a stranger, i remember
|
| All my hopes and all my fears,
|
| But the welcome, and the love i found
|
| I’ll remember through the years
|
| America
|
| Like so many men before
|
| America
|
| I found all my dreams-and more
|
| Waiting at your door
|
| America
|
| In this land where freedom grew
|
| America
|
| I will sing in praise of you
|
| And be grateful to
|
| America
|
| The strength that i needed
|
| When i felt defeated
|
| The courage that carried me through
|
| Like so many others
|
| My sisters and brothers
|
| I found it, believing in you.
|
| America
|
| Like so many men before
|
| America
|
| I found all my dreams-and more
|
| Waiting at your door
|
| America
|
| In this land where freedom grew
|
| America
|
| I will sing in praise of you
|
| And be grateful to
|
| America |
