Found on alibi and ventura highway and other favorites.
Theres a bright light thats shinin in your face
You cant even see me at all
Oh, you look like an angel out of place
At this downtown devils bar
Do you wanna dance girl
You said no thanks
And I watched you drift away
Well you had your chance
You couldve been the one
Tonight you couldve been the only one
For the rest of my life
Ill be dreamin of you when this dance is done
Knowin you couldve been the one
If I come back here I might see you again
And maybe youd say yes
But its a losin game Im tryin to win
And I can only guess
Do you have somebody (watchin)
Who watches you
As you let down your hair
By the light of the moon
You couldve been the one
Tonight you couldve been the only one
For the rest of my life
Ill be dreamin of you when this dance is done
Knowin you couldve been the one
Knowin you couldve been the one
Where do you go when the night ends
Are you just a dream that fades into gray
Visions of you will not leave me alone
Why did you have to turn away
You couldve been the one
Tonight you couldve been the only one
For the rest of my life
Ill be dreamin of you when this dance is done
Knowin you couldve been the one
Tonight you couldve been the only one
For the rest of my life
Ill be dreamin of you when this dance is done
Knowin you couldve been the one ...

America è un gruppo folk-rock anglo-americano formatosi a Londra nel 1970 da Gerry Beckley (multi-strumentista e voce), Dan Peek (voce e chitarra) e Dewey Bunnell (voce e chitarra). Il gruppo ha raggiunto la fama internazionale con il singolo "Horse with No Name", che ha scalato le classifiche di tutto il mondo. America è noto per un sound caratterizzato da melodie orecchiabili, armonie vocali raffinate e influenze folk e country. Tra i loro album più importanti ricordiamo "America" (1972), "Homecoming" (1974) e "Hearts" (1975). Il gruppo ha pubblicato una serie di successi negli anni '70, tra cui "A Horse with No Name", "Ventura Highway", "Sister Golden Hair" e "Tin Man". Dan Peek si è ritirato dal gruppo nel 1977 per motivi religiosi. America continua a esibirsi e registrare musica con Gerry Beckley e Dewey Bunnell.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
