I swear it was the Fourth of July
And I could barely raise my eyes
You were the rockets
You were the show
You were the colours
Oh, the light, the glow

Colour me in rags of light
Bury me in silver shine
I see it all the time
You feel so much
The distance in your eyes
Says so much
You're very far away
You won't catch me that way
You won't catch me that way

I don't know where this feeling begins
I shake and slip, fall in again, I guess
I can tell the way that you look at me now
You are the rockets and the light somehow

Colour me in red or white
Bury me in rags of light
I see it all the time
You feel so much
The distance in your eyes
Says so much
You're very far away
You won't catch me that way
Song, baby, it's your song
Song, baby, you're so gorgeous
Baby, you're so gorgeous

Song, in July
Like a million Julys
Like a million Julys
