American Dream Songtext
von Giorgio Moroder & Paul Engemann

Got to be the best that you can be

So you leave it behind
Believing in your dream.

On the threshold of what you've been told

Got to grab a hold 'cause the streets are paved with gold.

You work so hard just to break the ice
Gotta make the dream come true
And you take a chance when you roll the dice
Then it all comes back to you.

An American dream came true
The vision coming into view.
Now can you hear it calling you? Somehow I always knew:

An American dream came true

An open door that I walked through.
I hit it with the cards I drew.
Lightning strikes from the blue


It's calling you - American dream.

At the speed of light every night and day
Living on the edge but the dream won't go away.
Follow your plan 'cause you know you can
Make it to the top
Wanna hold it in your hand.

You work so hard just to break the ice
. . .
An American dream came true

An open door that I walked through
. . .
An American dream came true

The vision coming into view. . . .

An American dream came true

An open door that I walked through.
I hit it with the cards I drew.
Lightning strikes from the blue


An American dream came true.
