[Verse 1]
Make an amendment to the constitution
To preserve the state of our union
I stopped believing what you say to me
There's a tragic gap in credibility

[Chorus]
When the light is gone from your eyes
And re-entry may be denied
Do I want to expatriate
Or live in the United State?

[Verse 2]
Inflationary insecurity
'Cause a love ain't worth as much as it used to be
A clean break, running away
Should I work it out some way?

[Chorus]
When the light is gone from your eyes
And re-entry may be denied
Do I want to expatriate
Or live in the United State?

[Bridge]
Watch the trees in the wind when it's starting to blow
Is the reason to leave, is it treason to go?
Just appeasing you is the wrong thing, I know
Break away
[Chorus]
When the light is gone from your eyes
And re-entry may be denied
Do I want to expatriate
Or live in the United State?

[Refrain]
When the light is gone from your eyes
When the light is gone from your eyes

[Chorus]
When the light is gone from your eyes
And re-entry may be denied
Do I want to expatriate
Or live in the United State?

[Outro]
Don't want to live, live, live, live, live, live, live
I can't live in the United State
United State, can't live, can't live, can't live, live, live
I can't live in the United State
I can't live in the United State
I can't live in the United State
I can't live in the United State
United State, can't live, can't live, can't live, live, live
I can't live in the United State
United State, can't live in the United State
United State, can't live in the United State
