An Englishman in the U.S.A

Rambling around your city streets

I feel no earth below my feet

And I feel my life is crumbling into the sea

But I can't swim three thousand miles

So all I have is lonely nights

I'm an Englishman lost in the U.S. of A

And it's a long way back home

Such a long way back home

And I'm wondering

"Where am I gonna go?"

Lines dead, operators gone

Now the fear is coming on

And I hear my love wondering, "Where have I gone?"

So I'm gambling my bucks for pounds

Yeah, but Lady Luck just won't come around

For an Englishman who is stuck in the U.S. of A

And it's a long way back home

Such a long way back home

Oh, wondering, "Will I ever get away?" Hey

So here I am and there are you

Where wishful thoughts don't serve no use

And all the worrying in the world won't pull me through

So I think of love that might have been

And an airline ticket that's like a dream

For an Englishman who is lost in the U.S. of A, Hey

Such a long way from home

Such a long way from home

And I'm wondering, I'm wondering

Will I ever get to go? Hey

I'm a long way, a long way

Long way, a long way

A long way back home

I've been wondering

"Will I ever get to go?" Hey, yeah

Yeah, I'm waiting for you to take me home

C'mon, baby

I'm waiting for you to take me home

Yeah, I'm waiting for you to take me home, yeah

I'm waiting for you to take me home, yeah

Take me home

Take me home
