I Sill Dream Of America Words and music by Judith Owen When I was young And London bound The taste of coalmines Still in my sound (The loss of leaving all around) I looked to a distant star The music that would Stir my soul Across the sea Came Jelly Roll So when rainy pavements Took their toll I dreamt of America The Land that welcomed Souls to save Where all stood equal Lost and brave A second chance *From birth to grave Where differences would blur I watched the movies Loved those tales Of men who rose Wind in their sails The Everyman Who would prevail And I dreamt of America When I recall What used to be When I was lost A ship at sea And all that this land Meant to me My heart begins to stir I still dream of America For what we want And what we find That lovers tiff 'Tween heart and mind Missing what we've left behind When I dreamt And I dream of the cowboys And the big skies
