America - Early Days

There were times in those early days
When everyone just stayed amazed
Everything moving so fast
Everyone getting so gassed

I knew right then and there that
We could stay this way forever
In each and every way

From the moment I fell into things
Sunlight captured everything
Space and time would just remind us
No one really had to find us

I knew right then and there that
We could stay this way together
In each and every way

Everything was easy then
We were on our way
On the road to paradise
Nothing in our way

There were starry nights along the way
A revelation every day
Characters who hitched a ride
To crossroads in the dead of night

I knew right then and there that
We could stay this way forever
In each and every way

We pretended we were flightless birds
Communicating without words
Racing in from all directions
Seeking quiet introspection

I knew right then and there that
We could stay this way forever
In each and every way

Everything was easy then
We were on our way
Careful not to break things when
They got in our way
