So quiet around here this morning, I guess everyone got away for the weekend. I wish that I was one of those, packing up my summer clothes, heading down to the sea to watch the stars. I barely remember the fight last night, I had one last chance that I just threw away. I wish to God I'd just said no, cause by now you never know, I got my wish on Independence Day. Ooh, it's red, white and blue, staring at me, staring at you. And I'm red-eyed and blue, thinking about him, thinking about you. If I can stay awake until the sunset, I hear the fireworks are quite a sight. I'll drink a few icy beers, even though that's what got me here, and promise to become a better man. And I know you must be hurting, stuck between a rock and a hard place. I wish I'd never let you go, and I probably shouldn't tell you so, but I got my wish on Independence Day. Ooh, I'm that red, white and blue, staring at me, staring at you. And I'm red-eyed and blue, thinking about him, thinking about you. And I spent hours just waiting, the sky turned from blue to red to black. And I never felt this much alone, as to hear those far-off bombs explode, and hope all night that you might call me back. And just like that it was over, life goes on despite the blood and tears. No way of getting back, just need to face the facts, that you gave up on Independence Day. You gave up on Independence Day. Ooh, I'm that red, white and blue, staring at me, staring at you. And I'm red-eyed and blue, thinking about him, thinking about you. Thinking about him, looking at you. Thinking about him, being with you.
