Blues Traveler Miscellaneous 4th Of July Music & lyrics: john popper Well she hated the 4th of july Bombs bursting in air, and she'd never know why She'd keep me up all night, too terrified to cry Oh yes, she hated 4th of july Don't you be scared, don't you start to shake Go back to sleep because i am wide awake I'm right here, i'm not going anywhere tonight Feel my hand, i'm gonna hold you till the early light And when the thunder clapped, she'd run to me afraid She tried to be brave, but she couldn't figure out the terrible sound it made I was smarter, but she just couldn't see And when the thunder clapped, she'd always run to me Don't you be scared, don't you start to shake Go back to sleep because i am wide awake I'm right here, i'm not going anywhere tonight Feel my hand, i'm gonna hold you till the early light Oh yes, she loved the world on a crisp, autumn day The leaves would turn her color, the children were at play Sit on hilltops with her, she'd smile as if to say You couldn't touch the world when autumn comes this way And i don't believe she cared for getting old The limbs move a little slower, the hearing just goes cold One day she looked at me through a gray haired eye And i couldn't believe she was telling me good bye Don't you be scared, don't you start to shake Go back to sleep because i am wide awake I'm right here, i'm not going anywhere tonight Feel my hand, i'm gonna hold you till the early light And i do believe her soul was rich and blue We taught each other lessons, lessons that we knew When we kept growing, there was nothing we could do But i loved her and i know she loved me too Now you can call me a sentimental fool But i learned more from her than i ever did in school I still get apprehensive, i still remember why When the thunder claps or it's the 4th of july Don't you be scared, don't you start to shake Go back to sleep because i am wide awake I'm right here, i'm not going anywhere tonight Feel my hand, i'm gonna hold you till the early light Oh yes she hated the 4th of july |
