You called all the way from America
Said "Hang onto love girl"
But the weeks and the months and the years
Passed by...
And my eyes couldn't stand the strain
Of that promised love
All the way from America
All the way from America
You called all the way from America
Said I'll soon be home girl
And years and the tears and the fears,
Passed by...
And my heart couldn't stand the pain
of that promised love
All the way from America
All the way from America
I stayed all alone and I waited round
For you to knock at my door
But the knock never came
and no ring
At all....
And now I sit and wonder why
You made that first call
All the way way from America
I don't believe I'll stay here
I don't think I want to wait here anymore
And if you search for me baby
Better bring some more love than you declared
All the way from America
All the way from America
And my heart couldn't stand the pain
of that promised love
All the way from America
All the way from America
All the way from America
