Текст песни Casting Crowns - American Dream

All work no play may have made Jack a dull boy
But all work no God has left Jack with a lost soul
But he's moving on full steam
He's chasing the American dream
And he's gonna give his family finer things

......x2

Not this time son I've no time to waste
Maybe Tomorrow we'll have time to play 
And then he slips into his new BMW
And drives farther and farther and farther away

Pre-chorus 1
'Cause  he works all day and tries to sleep at night 
He says things will get better; better in time

'Cause he works and he builds with his own two hands
And he pours all he has in a castle made with sand 
But the wind and the rain are comin' crashing in 
Time will tell just how long his kingdom stands
His kingdom stands

His American dream is begining to seem 
More and More like a nightmare
with every passing day
"Daddy, can you come to my game?" 
"Oh Baby, please don't work late."
Another wasted weekend
And they are slipping away
Pre-Chorus 2
'Cause he works all day and lies awake at night 
He tells them  things will get better
It'll just take a little more time

He used to say, "Who ever died with the most toys wins."
But if he loses his soul, what has he gained in the end
I'll take a shack on a rock 
Over a castle in the sand

Pre-chorus 3
Now he works all day and cries alone at night 
It's not getting any better 

Looks like he's running out of time

All they really wanted was you
All they really wanted was you
All they really wanted was you
