Have We Told You, America

Parody of “Have I Told You Lately That I Love You?”

by Van Morrison
Have we told you, America, how we love you?

Have we told you, America, how we love you?
Could we tell you once again and bow?
Have we told with all our heart and soul how we adore you?
Well, America, we’re telling you now.

This world could end today if we should lose you.
It’s no good without you anyhow.
Our hearts should break in two if we refuse to.
Well, America, we’re telling you now.

Have we told you lately how we’d miss you?
If your stars and stripes can’t fly against the sky
Have we told you why it’s wrong
If you’re not with us?
Well, America, we’re telling you now.

Have we stood against those who revile you
And won’t stand when your song is sung out loud?
Have we told them why they’ll cry,
If you’re not with us?
Well, America, We’re telling you now.

This world could end today if we should lose you.
It’s no good without you anyhow.
Our hearts should break in two if we refuse to.
Well, America, we’re telling you now!
