Saturday morning, sounds of war

A Saturday when we didn't understand how, we didn't understand what

She was still asleep, I cried because of her

And I thought about America

I wanted to hope that it was a nightmare and we would soon wake up

I thought that by now we wouldn't worry anymore

I don't like seeing her so wounded

So I imagined America

You'll get back on your feet again

You'll get stronger, girl

You'll be great

Like America

You'll be great

Baby

Believe me when I tell you that everything will turn out okay

Baby

Smile at me and don't let go, this isn't the time to give up

No matter what

Wherever you go, I'm with you

And America is with us too

No matter what

As long as you hold my hand, I stay sane

We fell into a complicated and unpredictable world

I was afraid of falling asleep to another bad dream

So I dreamed of America

You'll get back on your feet again

You'll get stronger, girl

You'll be great like America

You'll be great

You'll get stronger, girl

You'll make me happy

And I'll make you happy too

We'll play games again

We'll laugh like children again

The soldiers will return

And we'll hear sounds

Of comfort
