Well she hated the 4th of July,
Bombs bursting in the air, and she`d never know why.
She`d keep me up all night, too terrified to cry.
Oh yes, she couldn`t stand the 4th of July.
And when the thunder clapped, she`d run to me afraid.
She tried to be brave, but she couldn`t figure out
The terrible sound it made.
I knew better, but she couldn`t see...
and when the thunder clapped, she`d always run to me.
[Chorus:]
Don`t you be scared, don`t you start to shake
Go back to sleep because I am wide awake
I am here, I`m not going anywhere tonight.
Feel my hand, I`m ganna hold you `til the early light.
Oh yes, she loved the world on a crisp, autumn day.
The leaves would turn her color, the children were at play.
Sit on hilltops with her, she`d smile as if to say
`You couldn`t touch the world when autumn came this way!`
And I do believe her soul was rich and blue.
We taught each other lessons, lessons that we knew.
When we kept growing, there was nothing we could do.
But I loved her and I know she loved me too.
(Chorus)
And I don`t think she cared one bit for getting old.
The senses all get dimmer, the limbs just get cold.
One day she looked at me through a grey-haired eye,
And I didn`t know she was telling me good-bye.
Now you can call me a sentimental fool,
but I learned more from her than I ever did in school.
I still get apprehensive. I still remember why
when the thunder claps when it`s the 4th of July.
