American Blue Eyes Lyrics

Verse 1:
American blue eyes take me away on the wings of a sweet memory
On a hot summer night off of old Combe road where your love like the wind flowed free
I was chasin' a dream I was chasin' my tail I was playin' your heart all the while
And you were in love but I didn't care lovin' one girl wasn't my style
Chorus:
On a faraway star I send up a wish
That I could turn back the time somehow
I told you that I didn't love you back then
And I don't love you now
I still don't love you now

Verse 2:
American blue eyes I'm so far away from the wild one I used to be On a cold winter night twenty years down the road with a job and family
I'm still chasin' a dream and still chasin' my tail now I've laid everything on the line
Is it you that I miss and your innocent love or the freedom that I left behind?

Repeat Chorus

Bridge:
Still see you cryin' in that cold September rain
And neither one of us has ever been the same Verse 3:
American blue eyes take me away on the wings of a sweet memory
On a hot summer night off of old Combe road where you told me you'd always love me
You swore that you'd always love me
