Explosions pillaging the night From the fireworks on the fourth of july It's just my lady, our friends, and i Smoking cigars and yelling at cars as they drive by
We scaled a ladder ascending to the roof While five years ago i weeped and no one knew Holding my guitar, i strummed a tune I sang "i love you but i have to cut you loose"
As the neighbor lights off the small bombs we watch From the rooftop... safely, so safely
If i had never let go, then only god knows where i would be know I made a bridge between us then i slowly burned it Five years ago, in my backyard i sang love away Little did i know that real love had not quite yet found me
