| This is the life that I wanted to live
|
| So many things that I wanted to give
|
| And I’d give them all back for you
|
| This is the sound of my dreams coming true
|
| Now I’m one step further from you
|
| But I’d walk right back for you
|
| I’m bathed in shining lights
|
| Famous friends and crazy nights
|
| This is American fame
|
| All of the praise and the blame
|
| All of the crowds and the press
|
| All I feel is loneliness
|
| This is American bliss
|
| All it took was a kiss
|
| All I gave was my heart
|
| And it’s tearing my world apart
|
| It’s tearing my world apart
|
| Suddenly life is moving so fast
|
| I hope my fifteen minutes will last
|
| But I’d turn the clock right back for you
|
| Sometimes I find myself saying your name
|
| But when I see you it won’t be the same
|
| Still I’d walk right back for you
|
| I’m bathed in shining lights
|
| Famous friends and crazy nights
|
| This is American fame
|
| All of the praise and the blame
|
| All of the crowds and the press
|
| All I feel is loneliness
|
| This is American bliss
|
| All it took was a kiss
|
| All I gave was my heart
|
| And it’s tearing my world apart
|
| This is American fame
|
| All of the praise and the blame
|
| All of the crowds and the press
|
| All I feel is loneliness
|
| This is American bliss
|
| All it took was a kiss
|
| All I gave was my heart
|
| And it’s tearing my world apart
|
| It’s tearing my world apart, ooh yeah
|
| Oh, my world apart |
