"I dreamed I was flying"

And I dreamed I was dying
I dreamed that my soul rose unexpectedly
And looking back down at me
Smiled reassuringly
And I dreamed I was flying
And high up above my eyes could clearly see
The Statue of Liberty
Sailing away to sea
--Paul Simon - American Tune

If you look closely, Lady Liberty has tears in her eyes. She's audacious and hoping but seasoned and wise. Let's sell her for oil.
