I've been away so long.
Ithought that nothing else
Could go wrong.
I went across the sea,
And nowI know

How great it is to be ...

Back home
In America.
Iknow
That I'm not alone
In my pride
And freedom.
Oh, what I wouldgive
So that I could
Forever live
In America.

You can'timagine
What I've seen,
Or all the pain
There has been.
Too manytears
Were shed,
But it'll be alright
For me
Because now I'm ...

Back home
In America.
I know
That I'm not alone
In mypride
And freedom.
Oh, what I would give
So that I could
Foreverlive in America.

Oh, can't you see
How great we can be.
If we standtogether

We'll survive any wind
or weather ...

Back home
In America.
I know
That I'm not alone
In my pride
And freedom.
Oh, what I would give
So that I could
Forever live inAmerica.

Our nation was built
On our founding fathers
And now astheir sons
And daughters
We need to
Let our voices be heard ...

Back home
In America.
I know
That I'm not alone
In mypride
And freedom.
Oh, what I would give
So that I could
Foreverlive in America.

We've go to
strive to spread
Our freedom
Allover
The world.
But remember
We can't let anyone
Try to take itaway ...

Back home
In America.

I know
That I'm not alone
In my pride
And freedom.
Oh, what I would give
So that I could
Forever live
In America.
Land of the free
And the home of thebrave.
Yeah, I love
America.
