Owl City - The 5th of July Songtexte

My mom woke my dad up
Then it's time to leave

They jumped in the old capris
And
Tore off into the night
On the 4th of July
They flew the darkness
Drivin' like Jay, who

They rolled into a dumb one
Ooh, and the sun began to rise
On the 4th of July
And then Wox, Bob, and Jenna
Rachael's on her way

Peek in through the window
Hoping to see her grandson cry
On the 4th of July

My mother watched the fireworks
From her hospital bed
And after it was all over
Tell me for the first time
On the 5th of July

I got my mother's brown eyes
And my dad's quiet way
And Grandma Rachael's love for music,
The morning I arrived
On the 5th of July

Deep in Iowa's country
And I haven't made hideaway
On the shores of Lake Rathburn

My folks brought me home
On the 5th of July
That was when
Life began for me

And that was when
Life began
For me

A teacher and a mechanic
Brought me into this world
And they love me with all their hearts
The day I opened my eyes

On the 5th
Of July

That was when
Life began
For me

That was when
Life began
For me
