Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It's 4th of July, you're crying
Your world's come crashin' down
You know it's not right but you're still tryin'
To turn it back around
[Verse 2]
Can't see it now
You're better off without someone who kept you down
I know, I know you thought it was love
But love ain't like this
You should shine your brightest
I know, I know you're hurting right now
[Verse 3]
I can see the fireworks soaring
Even though your tears are falling
For every star, every stripe
There's a scar on your heart tonight
True love will never take your freedom
Right now I know you don't believe it
But, baby, one day, hey, you're gonna celebrate
Your Independence Day
[Verse 4]
This time next year, we'll be laughin'
In the summer sun, poppin' bottles
We'll be right here, dancing till the darkness
[Verse 5]
You know this ain't love yet, love ain't like this
You should shine your brightest
I know, I know you're hurting right now
[Verse 6]
I can see the fireworks soaring
Even though your tears are falling
For every star, every stripe
There's a scar on your heart tonight
True love will never take your freedom
Right now I know you don't believe it
But, baby, one day, hey, you're gonna celebrate
Your Independence Day
[Verse 7]
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
(Ooh, ooh)
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
Your Independence Day
[Verse 8]
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
(Ooh, ooh)
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
Your Independence Day
[Verse 9]
It's 4th of July, you're crying
Your world's come crashin' down
[Verse 10]
I can see the fireworks soaring
Even though your tears are falling
For every star, every stripe
There's a scar on your heart tonight
True love will never take your freedom
Right now I know you don't believe it
But, baby, one day, hey, you're gonna celebrate
Your Independence Day
