Close To Home - Fourth Of July Lyrics

This fourth of July
No fireworks or moonlight
No girl to hold or pen to write
Tonight I sigh alone goodnight.

I wish that I could whisper in your ear
All the reasons why. I need you here
An eternity you told me not to fear
All the reasons why you cant be here

So much for tonight
I lie awake with closed eyes
One restless sleep, just kill some time
Tonight I sigh
This fourth of July
I wont be looking in your eyes
No hand to hold or lip to bite
Tonight I sigh alone goodnight

I wish that I could whisper in your ear
All the reasons why. I need you here
An eternity you told me not to fear
All the reasons why you cant be here

I won't say goodbye cause this cant be the last time
One restless sleep to kill some time
Tonight I sigh alone goodnight

So I say no
I won't let you go
No not like this
I'd never know what I had missed
