American English Lyrics

Wax - American English

Here comes my one and only
Talking like a starlet on a Hollywood screen
She whispers something to me
I hear the words but I don't know what she means

Oh she speaks American English
Oh don't always understand
Though she speaks American English
Got the language of love
At her command

Love travels transatlantic
I'm hot and bothered by her figure of speech
Can't follow her semantics
But when her body moves it's clear to me

CHORUS
We don't need words
To express what is real
We've got each other
That says everything that we feel

There's too much damn confusion
With all this talking going round and round
We'll reach our own conclusion
We'll make connection on the common ground

CHORUS

She speaks American English
She speaks the language of love
She speaks American English

Anchors Aweigh (1989)
(Gold/Gouldman)

Eighteen
I'd never been far from home
A young lad seekin' destiny
This ship
With a hundred hands or more
To set sail on a stormy sea
I don't know how we can find our way
With only the stars in the sky
To be our guide
I was green inside
When I heard the captain calling

Anchors aweigh now
Anchors aweigh
We're underway now
Anchors aweigh

I've heard tales of boats that ran aground
Ghost ships dead in the sun
And of men bewitched by the siren's song
Those that died were the lucky ones
One wave can knock a man overboard
And in the name of the crown
A man could drown
I was feeling down
When I heard the captain calling

Anchors aweigh now
Anchors aweigh
We're underway now
Anchors aweigh
