Independence Day Songtext
von Moxy Früvous

The streamers were red and gold
And all of the stores stayed closed
And everybody couldn′t wait
For the fireworks display
The city had a hot dog stand
And lovers walked hand in hand
And me standing there alone
Except for the clowns I suppose

And the people came around
On Independence Day
And the children let go
Their balloons and flew away


The wind swung around to the east
And the rain came down in sheets
I saw trees bending to the ground
And people running all around
I stuck my hands into my coat
Felt the letter you wrote
I said this is Independence Day
I wonder how I'll celebrate

And the people came around
On Independence Day
And the children let go
Their balloons and flew away

Red and gold bleed down to black
Once it′s gone it won't come back

And the people came around
On Independence Day
And the children let go
Their balloons and flew away

Genevieve I do believe
I can't go on this way
Now I know what freedom is
On Independence Day
