Lyrics - An Englishman In The Usa by Leo Sayer

rambling 'round your city streets
I feel no earth beneath my feetand
I feel my lifeis crumbling into, into the seabut
I can't swimthree thousand milesso all
I have is lonely nights
I'm an englishmanlost in the usaand it's a long way back homesuch a long way back homeand
I'm wonderingwhere am
I gonna goline's dead -- operator's goneand now the fear is coming onand
I hear my lovewondering where have
I goneso
I'm gambling bucks for poundsyeah, but lady luckjust won't come aroundfor an englishmanwho is stuck in the usaand it's a long way back homesuch a long way back homeand
I'm wonderingwill
I ever get awayso here
I am and there are youwhere wishful thoughtsdon't serve no useand all the worrying in the worldwon't pull me throughso
I think of love thatmight have beenand an airline ticketthat's like a dreamfor an englishmanwho is lost in the usasuch a long way back homesuch a long way back homeand
I'm wonderingwill
I ever get to goand
I'm waiting for youto take me home
