Aimee Mann – 4th Of July Lyrics  Share

From Aimee Mann's album: Whatever

Today^,s the fourth of July
another June has gone by
and when they light up our town I just think
what a waste of gunpowder and sky
I^,m certain that I am alone
in harbouring thoughts of our home
it^,s one of my faults that I can^,t quell my past
I ought to have gotten it gone


Oh, baby, I wonder -
if when you are older -
someday-
you^,ll wake up
and say, ^,My God, I should have told her -
what would it take?
But now here I am and the world^,s gotten colder
and she^,s got the river down which I sold her.^,

So that^,s today^,s memory lane
with all the pathos and pain
another chapter in a book where the chapters are endless
and they^,re always the same
a verse, then a verse, and refrain

Oh, baby, I wonder -
if when you are older -
someday-
you^,ll wake up
and say, ^,My God, I should have told her -
what would it take?
But now here I am and the world^,s gotten colder
and she^,s got the river down which I sold her.^,
