Lyrics
Verse 1
Oh my love, it's a long way we've come
From the freckled hills, to the steel and glass canyons
From the stony fields, to hanging steel from the sky
From digging in our pockets, for a reason not to say goodbye
Chorus
E queste sono le mani, quella l'America costruita Amperora
Bridge
Of all of the promises, is this one we could keep
Of all of the dreams, is this one still out of reach
Verse 2
Avette ottenuto vivere con i vostri sogni
Innocence, dragged across a yellow line
