Album: Moonshine In The Trunk (2014)

American Flag On The Moon

How do we honor those who have fallen and died for this dream?
I'm sure of one thing, it's not with gridlock or bickering
We're the children of explorers, that came here from every corner
The adventures that sat on this land
We led the world, fought tyranny, touched the stars, brought liberty
Let's do that again

Tonight I dare you to dream
Go on, believe impossible things
Whenever anybody says there's anything we can't do
I mean after all, there's an American flag on the moon

Outside the other night, you should have seen the moonlight
It's enough to make you squint your eyes
So my five year old had learned about
The lunar landing and he walked out
And started staring at the sky
Stood there for a while, he got a great big smile
And said, "Dad, I think I can see it, can you?"
I bowed my head, closed my eyes and said
"Yes son, I think I do"

Tonight I dare you to dream
Go on, believe impossible things
Whenever anybody says there's anything we can't do
Cause after all, there's an American flag on the moon

Oh, in two hundred years
Think about all that we've done so far
I don't see any reason why tomorrow can't be ours

Tonight I dare you to dream
Go on, believe impossible things
Whenever anybody says there's anything we can't do
Cause after all, after all,
There's an American flag on the moon
