Here comes my one and only
Talking like a starlet on a Hollywood screen
She whispers something to me
I hear the words but I don't know what she means
Oh, she speaks American English
Oh, don't always understand
Though she speaks American English
Got the language of love at her command
Love travels transatlantic
I'm hot and bothered by her figure of speech
Can't follow her semantics
But when her body moves it's clear to me
Oh, she speaks American English
Oh, don't always understand
Though she speaks American English
Got the language of love at her command
Hey!
Come on, yeah
Come on, yeah, woo
We don't need words
To express what is real
We've got each other
That says everything that we feel
There's too much damn confusion
With all this talking going round and round
We'll reach our own conclusion
We'll make connection on the common ground
I said
Oh, she speaks American English
Oh, don't always understand
Though she speaks American English
Got the language of love at her command
Oh, she speaks American English
Oh, don't always understand
Though she speaks American English
Got the language of love at her command
Hey!
Come on, yeah
Come on, yeah
Come on, woo
She speaks American English
She speaks the language of love
She speaks American English
She speaks American English
She speaks the language of love
She speaks American English
She speaks American English
She speaks the language of love
She speaks American English
She speaks American English
She speaks the language of love
She speaks American English

Great song!!! Long live the 80s!

These guys are amazing, I can't believe they didn't hit it big in the US. Their singles are catchy as hell. I just wish I'd discovered them 30 years ago.

Me encanta esta canción ❤️
Jon Doe
One of those great pop albums from the 80s. ❤
alan burge
Another great little pop combo from the 80s. Amazing decade. Bridge to her heart and American English were the singles the 2 hits I remember but probably a lot of people forgot or never even knew of this group's existence in the first place. I got this on cassette then CD from memory.
Nick Esposito
top song.. and under-rated song writers!
Power & Glory
I never understood why this wasn’t a hit. Of its time and in the back of ‘Building a Bridge...’
KingRandor82
Building a Bridge is a Mike & the Mechanics rip-off with an abysmal music video. I love it for how bad it is. No...the song that should've shot them to superstardom was Shadows of Love, honestly. Their work IS really good...once you're selective about what gets promoted.
