HEARTLAND, BACKROADS, AND NEON LIGHTS

(Verse 1) In the heart of the heartland, where the cornfields grow I watched you leave, my love, with a heart heavy and low The wind whispers secrets of those days far away In this small town, I'm still dreaming of a brighter day (Chorus) In America, land of the free Where dreams are born and hearts run free I'm lost in this wide open space Longing for your love to embrace (Verse 2) On the back roads and highways, I search for a sign To lead me back to you, and the love we left behind Through the valleys and mountains, I'll follow the old train tracks Hoping to find a way back to the love that I lack (Chorus) Oh, America, land of the free Where dreams are born and hearts run free I'm lost in this wide open space Longing for your love to embrace (Bridge) In the neon lights of a city that never sleeps I'll walk these streets, a heart that weeps But I'll keep on searching, for a love that's true In this land of dreams, I'll find my way back to you (Chorus) Oh, America, land of the free Where dreams are born and hearts run free I'm lost in this wide open space Longing for your love to embrace (Verse 2) On the back roads and highways, I search for a sign To lead me back to you, and the love we left behind Through the valleys and mountains, I'll follow the old train tracks Hoping to find a way back to the love that I lack (Chorus) Oh, America, land of the free Where dreams are born and hearts run free I'm lost in this wide open space Longing for your love to embrace (Bridge) In the neon lights of a city that never sleeps I'll walk these streets, a heart that weeps But I'll keep on searching, for a love that's true In this land of dreams, I'll find my way back to you (Chorus) Oh, America, land of the free Where dreams are born and hearts run free I'm lost in this wide open space Longing for your love to embrace [outro] (Chorus) Oh, America, land of the free Where dreams are born and hearts run free I'm lost in this wide open space Longing for your love to embrace [outro]
