Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Well the first day of spring, well it came and gone

And the summer did too but winter's so long

And my heart still sings, sings for you

And I dream of the one summer night I spent with you

And it still goes on like the 4th of July

And my heart still beats like you're by my side

And I dream of the day when you'll be mine

And I'll fly sky high on the 4th of July

Well the first day of spring, well it came and gone

And the summer did too but winter's so long

And my heart still sings, sings for you

And I dream of the one summer night I spent with you

And then the rain came down and the shades of grey

And they washed our love, my dreams away

And the rising sun, it never came

It just stayed there in that one summer day

And it still goes on like the 4th of July

And my heart still beats like you're by my side

And I dream of the day when you'll be mine

And I'll fly sky high on the 4th of July

And the fireworks still pop in my head

The flag still flies overhead

And the banner still blows, still blow in the wind

The crowds still cheer, the crowds still sing

And it still goes on like the 4th of July

And my heart still beats like you're by my side

And I dream of the day when you'll be mine

And I'll fly sky high

And it still goes on like the 4th of July

And my heart still beats like you're by my side

And I dream of the day when you'll be mine

And I'll fly sky high, happy 4th of July
