I've known about you for a while now
But you don't know me
and when I heard that you ended it,
I said finally
I'll take a long shot in the dark
From this Stadium seat
So, take your time when you're ready
You can get back to me
Uuuu uuh,
Nobody ever could have seen this coming
Who knew?
You'd wear a jersey with my last name on it
this time I see, and everybody sees it too
You're someone I don't wanna lose
Cause I can't help but fall for you
It's American baby
You stole my heart, and now I've gone to red from blue
And when you're wearing white, they'll say
They knew, a Jack and Diane Part Two
My American baby
Oh, it's American baby
(When you love somebody)
She said I think I've finally had enough
Swore off-white picket fences
Raised up my defenses
Didn't think anyone could fix it
Guess that's the craziness of love
It comes when you least expect it
and when your reputation's reckless
But I found my redemption with you
