Fourth of July Songtext
von Van William

Slipping out of sight from the chorus line
Everybody reaching for the light
Sunday sleeping in
Dreamed another sin
But you were always waiting like a child
I've gone wild
Have a little faith the dead will rise

I don't know anything
I thought I told you, I thought I told you, babe
I don't believe in anything
I thought I told you, I thought I told you, babe
It all came down, bursting like a bubble
I took it to the sky, go and looking for some trouble
But you were always there in the back of my mind
You were dancing in the rain on the fourth of July


I can still recall the feeling of it all
Everybody there to watch me fall
In your Sunday dress
An ache in your chest
But I could never open up my eyes
Lord, I tried
Have a little faith and you'll be alright

I don't know anything
I thought I told you, I thought I told you, babe
I don't believe in anything
I thought I told you, I thought I told you, babe
Oh my God, look at you, a rebel
You tearing it all down, always spitting out gravel
Holding on for someone dear that I can't feel
[?] looking in the mirror from the center of me
It all came down, bursting like a bubble
I took it to the sky, go and looking for some trouble
But you were always there in the back of my mind
You were dancing in the rain on the fourth of July
