lyrics

Fourth of July

Fourth of July
Spinning my wheels
Catching my eye
Let it come from beneath the pain

I never knew you would show me that
But in the moment, sung by the night
I never walked across a thinner bridge
Without the aid of my eyes
And without the fear of falling

Cause I fell for you
And I would fall again

I’ll let you go and be at peace with myself
Cause it’s all that I can do about it baby
When we were dancing in the heat of the night
You showed me something beautiful
I won’t forget
So let it flow in you, walk with you
Break new ground there’s fire in you still
We’ve got a chance to become more than ourselves
But I’m putting it in your hands now child

I was a pauper in my mind
And then I looked

Walking you home
You asked what I saw in you
It’s more than I know
I just went where the river moves

I never knew you were soft like that
I didn’t think and you let me in
If it’s one night than, let it be that
But I let you under my skin
And I would fall again

I’ll let you go and be at peace with myself
Cause it’s all that I can do about it baby
When we were dancing in the heat of the night
You showed me something beautiful
I won’t forget
So let it flow in you, walk with you
Break new ground there’s fire in you still
I’ve got a chance to be at home in my self
So I’m putting it in your hands now life

I climbed up high upon the ledge…

And than I jumped ~

Align ~

Yeah we’re more than this
Step back and feel your life embellished
Yes I’ll go with this –
I’m given all I need to relish
In truth

my beloved
