Something American

We knew each other when we were very young
High school sweethearts or something American
Now weve become I only see photos
Shes what I thought something American
Something American
But you dont call me now
And I dont think too much about you
But when shes not around
I can feel youre lonely
Oh I can feel youre lonely somehow
Im not nice like her
Wont wear white like her
Dont live like with the pages
No Im not perfect
But then no one is
Were all reaching for something American
But you dont call me now
And I dont think too much about you
But when shes not around
I can feel youre lonely
I can feel you all night
In my dreams I find
The stars align
And its you and I
Oh back in time it feels so right
But you dont call me now
And I dont think too much about you
But when shes not around
I can feel youre lonely oh
You dont call me now
And I dont think too much about you
But when shes not around
I can feel youre lonely oh
I can feel youre lonely somehow
We knew each other when we were very young
High school sweethearts or something American
