Leo Sayer - An Englishman in The Usa lyrics

I feel no earth beneath my feet

and I feel my life

is crumbling into, 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 usa

and it's a long way back home

such a long way back home

and I'm wondering

where am I gonna go

line's dead -- operator's gone

and now the fear is coming on

and I hear my love

wondering where have I gone

so I'm gambling bucks for pounds

yeah, but lady luck

just won't come around

for an englishman

who is stuck in the usa

and it's a long way back home

such a long way back home

and I'm wondering

will I ever get away

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 usa

such a long way back home

such a long way back home

and I'm wondering

will I ever get to go

and I'm waiting for you

to take me home
