As the fireworks fly by
The sky's so pretty this time of night
On this particular 4th of july
The fireworks are bright
But so is my desire
To have you here
Watching them explode
We could kiss and we could hug
But that won't happen
You won't know
How much i want you to
[Chorus]
See the couples sitting close?
Can't help but wish that were us
Oh this particular 4th of July
I wish you were here to see the sky
[Instrumental]
[Verse 2]
Don't know what made me think about you
Could it be the pretty, pretty lights?
The way they light up an endless sky
That always feels so dark no matter what?
Maybe it's just my loneliness
Watching them in the distance
They're enjoying a moment
I want to enjoy something like that
Watching the fireworks ignite the sky!
Of course I get distracted this was supposed to be nice!
But I can't stop thinking about how much I like you!
And I can't stop wishing that you knew why!
