I'll take a plane Across the USA I'll change my name I'll dig a hole I'll throw it all away To see your face The amber waves They're laughin in my face They don't believe The golden plains The purple mountains, too They bring me down I'm sure it's beautiful It's got teeth Sharper than I've seen I'm sure it's beautiful It's got will I've only got a dream I'll take a plane Across the USA I'll tear it down And battles rage They scream and take me back I try to smile I know she's there I see her walking wires Up in the towers A little wind Could make it all for naught I speed along I'm sure it's beautiful It's got teeth Sharper than I've seen I'm sure it's beautiful It's got will I've only got a dream I would build a road But I'm not a builder I would climb a tree But I'm no climber I would start a war But I'm scared of fighting I just wanna get close to you Tear it down I'm climbin rivers and swimmin hills I'm climbin rivers and swimmin hills Can it go any longer now? La-a-a-a-oh-oh Tear it down I'm climbin rivers and swimmin hills I'm climbin rivers and swimmin hills Can it go any longer now? La-a-a-a-oh-oh
