BØRNS - American Money , , 1. I was there when you fell from the clouds () And landed in the desert There was a thunder inside of my heart There was a wonderful pleasure And like a stallion racing the rain You rode on the back of my bike I knew from the song that you sang You were my lover for life Pre-Chorus: , Oh, There's no time to sleep , Oh, Living in a dream So take me to the paradise In your eyes Green like American money You taste just right Sweet like Tennessee honey And we can run away Swimming in the sunlight everyday Oh, paradise in your eyes Green like American money 2. So we took to the calico road () Running from the weather There was a highway inside of her eyes There was a buried treasure And we got caught in the storm You started flying the kite At the end was the key to my heart You were my lover for life Pre-Chorus: , Oh, There's no time to sleep , Oh, Living in a dream So take me to the paradise In your eyes Green like American money You taste just right Sweet like Tennessee honey And we can run away Swimming in the sunlight everyday Oh, paradise in your eyes Green like American money Bridge: We carved our love in the mountainside We soaked our hearts in the rain ,, And I, ,, Waited my whole life, For you , , ,
