American Love

[Verse 1] (Hey!) (Hey!) She doesn't panic from the warning signs (Hey!) She's hiding under foreign cotton and sheets of ice (Hey!) Until I come around and clear her mind (Hey!) But I know who you are, so why don't we start again? [Chorus] It was colder by the pond So she wore a pair of my gloves Then she flew me to Milan She calls me her American love American love, American love, American love [Verse 2] A bay-and-gable in a small lake town She wants to buy it from her dad just to tear it down (Hey!) Then tell her uncles they can have it now (Hey!) But we're still coming by, just for the fireworks [Chorus] It was colder by the pond So she wore a pair of my gloves Then she flew me to Milan She calls me her American love American love, American love, American love (Ooo-ooo, haa-aah) (Ooo-ooo, haa-aah) [Bridge] If I belonged to anyone I'd choose a blonde and have a son And dress him up in tennis shoes And play along until he's good If I belonged to anyone I'd choose a blonde and have a son And teach him things to get him by The city girls will never bite If I belonged to anyone I'd choose a blonde and have a son And dress him up in tennis shoes And play along until he's good, yeah [Outro] American love, American love, American love, oh American love, it's the American love, American love
