Lyrics
I came from the north Escaping convention Modern invention that won't let me be To the shores of st. martin With my fiction addiction To restart the fire A dreamer's remedy
Independence day And all I remember Was a midnight rainbow That fell from the sky As I stand on the beach I slowly surrender To the child in me That can't say goodbye
The rockets in the air And the people everywhere Put away their differences for a while Oh I am still a child When it comes to something wild Oh that was the night I painted the sky
I dug in the sand Like a boy on a mission And there in my hands A pyro's delight
If un bombadier A night time magician I sparked the sky As the rockets fly from view
The rockets in the air And the people everywhere Put away their differences for a while Es I am still a child When it comes to something wild Oh that was the night I painted the sky
Oh the mortars they roar In anticipation Proceeding the sigh Of the uplifted eyes It showers us all In sulfuric sensation The colors shine And a fiery rhyme tonight
The rockets in the air (ooooh...) And the people everywhere Won't you put away your differences for a while I am but a child When it comes to something wild Oh that was the night That was the night Oh that was the night I painted the sky Painted the sky Painted the sky
