American Girl

I know we said that this is just fun
I know we said this doesn’t mean much
But now you’re gone and you’ve shut me out
I know that was the deal, but it still hurts, you know
I was always afraid of heights
I was always afraid of falling
But when I fell for you
It was like gravity letting go of the earth
You made me fall in love with an American girl
You made me feel like coming home
You always knew how to set my skin on fire
Now I’m starting over without you
Now I’m starting over without you
Everyone told me not to get attached
But telling me not to feel is like telling me not to breathe
I was aiming a loaded gun at my heart
You pulled the trigger and left me dying on the floor
I was always afraid of heights
I was always afraid of falling
But when I fell for you
It was like gravity letting go of the earth
You made me fall in love with an American girl
You made me feel like coming home
You always knew how to set my skin on fire
Now I’m starting over without you
Now I’m starting over without you
I was always afraid of heights
I was always afraid of falling
But when I fell for you
I thought I was falling
But you made me fly
You made me fall in love with an American girl
You made me feel like coming home
You always knew how to set my skin on fire
Now I’m starting over without you
Now I’m starting over without you
