We were poor
But I was satisfied
And I thought that you were, too
You were pure
And I was terrified
I wasn't good enough for you
When they sailed
Into the harbour
I could see it in your eyes
I knew
That you were dreaming
Of leaving me behind
You say "America is beautiful"
And I sure hope you're right
If I could see you across the water
I'd say "America is beautiful tonight"
I'd say "America is beautiful tonight"
When I met
That Yankee sailor
He stood tall and shook my hand
He took pleasure
In the moment
In the measure of a man
Then he turned
And left me standing
And he asked you out to dance
But when you met
That Yankee sailor
I knew I didn't stand a chance
You say "America is beautiful"
And I sure hope you're right
If I could see you across the water
I'd say "America is beautiful tonight"
I'd say "America is beautiful tonight"
Beautiful tonight
We were poor
But I was satisfied
And I thought that you were, too
You were pure
And I was terrified
I wasn't good enough for you
You say "America is beautiful"
And I sure hope you're right
If I could see you across the water
I'd say "America is beautiful tonight"
I'd say "America is beautiful tonight"
I'd say "America is beautiful tonight"
