What's wrong with my love that you choose to give it up?
And what's the matter with my heart, you decide it's not enough?
Once upon a time I was your angel sent down to you from above
Once upon a time you'd catch my eye and flash a smile just because
'Cause you're the kind of guy who makes your mind up
Changes it two, three, four times
You said
If I wasn't so American
I might love you more
But giving up my independence
Goes against my core
If I wasn't so American
I might love you more
But giving up my independence
Goes against my core
Love is a privilege, not a right
Sometimes you just don't get back twice
We all want the next best thing
All of the brave and all of the free
Life is a privilege, not a right
Love is a privilege, not a right
Sometimes you just don't get back twice
We all want the next best thing
All of the brave and all of the free
The free
If I wasn't so American
I might love you more
But giving up my independence
Goes against my core
If I wasn't so American
I might love you more
But giving up my independence
Goes against my core
