American Love - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

(Hey!)

She doesn't panic from the warning signs (Hey!)

She's hiding under foreign cotton and sheets of ice (Hey!)

Until I come around and clear her mind (Hey!)

But I know who you are, so why don't we start again?

It was colder by the pond

So she wore a pair of my gloves

Then she flew me to Milan

She calls me her American love

American love, American love, American love

A bay-and-gable in a small lake town

She wants to buy it from her dad just to tear it down (Hey!)

Then tell her uncles they can have it now (Hey!)

But we're still coming by, just for the fireworks

It was colder by the pond

So she wore a pair of my gloves

Then she flew me to Milan

She calls me her American love

American love, American love, American love

(Ooo-ooo, haa-aah)

If I belonged to anyone

I'd choose a blonde and have a son

And dress him up in tennis shoes

And play along until he's good

If I belonged to anyone

I'd choose a blonde and have a son

And teach him things to get him by

The city girls will never bite

If I belonged to anyone

I'd choose a blonde and have a son

And dress him up in tennis shoes

And play along until he's good, yeah

American love, American love, American love, oh

American love, it's the American love, American love
