Let us be lovers
We'll marry our fortunes together
I've got some real estate here in my bag
So we bought a pack of cigarettes
And Mrs. Wagner's Pies
And walked on, walked on, walked on
To look for America
'Kathy,' I said as we boarded a Greyhound to Pittsburg,
'Michigan seems like a dream to me now'
It took me four days to hitchhike from Saginaw
All gone to look for America
All gone to look for America
Laughing on the bus
Playing games with the faces
She said the man in the Gabardine suit was a spy
I said, 'Be carefull his bow tie is really a camera.'
Kathy I'm lost I said
Although I knew she was sleeping
I'm empty and I'm aching
And I don't know why
Counting the cars on the New Jersey Turnpike
They've all come to look for America
All come to look for America
All come to look for America

Yes è un gruppo musicale britannico formatosi a Londra nel 1968. Considerati uno dei pilastri del rock progressivo, hanno raggiunto fama internazionale negli anni '70 con album come *Fragile*, *Close to the Edge* e *Going for the One*. Il loro sound si caratterizza per la complessità musicale, l'uso di strumenti orchestrali, le melodie avvolgenti e i testi spesso filosofici. Tra i membri fondatori figuravano Jon Anderson (voce), Chris Squire (basso), Peter Banks (chitarra) e Bill Bruford (batteria). Nel corso degli anni, la formazione ha subito diverse variazioni, con l'ingresso di musicisti come Steve Howe (chitarra), Rick Wakeman (tastiere) e Alan White (batteria). Yes hanno venduto oltre 30 milioni di dischi in tutto il mondo e sono stati inseriti nella Rock and Roll Hall of Fame nel 2017. Alcuni dei loro brani più rappresentativi includono *Roundabout*, *Owner of a Lonely Heart* e *Starship Trooper*.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
