"American Dreaming" by Dead Can Dance, off the the 1994 album Toward The Within.

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 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 feelings within her

And we'll go dancing in the rings of laughter

And live along by the shores

Fervor on with her arms around she reside alone for the lost

Faith, underneath the rising wind blows

How long how long?

Here alone on the grounds are millions seeds we left behind

Turned back by the fool of the doorway of

Never lost and found

We've been too long American dreaming

I think we've lost: lost the door

Fear on somnambulistic maniacal in the dark

Faith, underneath the rising wind blows

How long how long?

Many fans were my friends that lost interest in DCD after this period, but I'm a fan of all of there eras of their music. I think they had stepped into their prime with this release of live recordings. And this song is one of my very favorites.

sad that only 113,005 people bothered there to listen to this tune, a well people are missing the absolute beauty of vision and dreaming.. guess some people dont understand what nature can do to the soul... some times being lost is a very beautiful thing, cause what you find on the way can really open ones eyes

The dream is coming to an end and the way has long been lost

If Darius Rucker and Eddie Vedder coalesced, this is what it would sound like vocally.

Necesito de mi conciencia a la hora de mantener la vigilancia sobre mipara protegerme de mi mismoAsi que puedo usar la honestidad como una corona sobre mi cabezacuando entro en la tierra prometidaHemos sido demasiado largos en esta especie de sueño americano y creo que hemos perdido el caminotriste sonambulismo, maniaca oscuridadEstoy enamorado de un corazon americanoaunque ella es mi mejor amigame encanta su sonrisa encubiertadonde esconde el dolor dentro de siy vamos a bailar en los anillos de la risaen la linea del aumento del vientovivo enamorado de una chica inglesa de los 80en el recinto que ha quedado a trasen la linea donde aumentaron los golpes del vientopero volvi a los pies de esta puertanunca perdido y nunca encontrado....Hemos sido demasiado largos en este sueño americanocreo que todos hemos perdido el corazonpermanezco en un maniatico sonambulismoestoy en la linea donde aumentan los golpes del viento.
