[ti:]4th of july
[ar:]
[al:]
Every little kiss I tend to hold
Precious in my heart you've turned to gold
Love's not the word to explain
Just how I feel
It seemed like a dream but I'm wide-awake
And like the earth inside it made me shake
Like a summer fairytale, but it was real
You set off a brand new kind of spark inside of me
And I wouldn't leave your lips even to breathe

Chorus:
The first time I saw you, you were lighting up the sky
Like bright flashing fireworks on the 4th of July
I won't forget and I don't regret
Losing my myself deep inside of your eyes
That night I'll remember for the rest of my life

I cherish all the moments that we spent
I only wish it never had to end
I can take a journey in my mind to yesterday
I'll use the moon and stars to guide me there
A place so far away but yet so near
Just to hold you one more time, I'd be ok
You set off a brand new kind of spark inside of me
And I wouldn't leave your lips even to breathe

Chorus:
The first time I saw you, you were lighting up the sky
Like bright flashing fireworks on the 4th of July
I won't forget and I don't regret
Losing my myself deep inside of your eyes
That night I'll remember for the rest of my life

I feel I left my world, my life, my breath behind
But I know the sun will shine through
Cause I know that again I'll see you
This can't be goodbye
We'll meet again on the 4th of July

Chorus:
The first time I saw you, you were lighting up the sky
Like bright flashing fireworks on the 4th of July
I won't forget and I don't regret
Losing my myself deep inside of your eyes
That night I'll remember for the rest of my life
