I need my conscience to keep watch over me 
To protect me from myself 
So I can wear honesty like a crown on my head 
When I walk into the promised land 
We've been too long American dreaming 
And I think we've all lost the way 
Forlorn somnambulistic maniacal in the dark 

I'm in love with an American girl 
Though she's my best friend 
I love her surreptitious smile 
That hides the pain within her 

And we'll go dancing in the rings of laughter 
And live along by the shores 
..??? ..

Yeah-ee, on the lea the rising wind blows 
Fay-hee, on the lea the rising wind blows 
How long how long? 

??? in the grounds of ??? we've left behind 
Turned back by the foot of the doorway 
Never lost and found 

We've been too long American dreaming 
I think we've all lost the heart 
??? somnambulistic maniacal in the dark 

Yeah-ee, on the lea the rising wind blows 
Fay-hee, on the lea the rising wind blows 
How long how long?
