[Verse 1]
Fourth of July, summer air on my skin,
Two old trucks parked where the night begins.
Your brown hair blowing, those big bug eyes,
My curls in the wind, green eyes catching the sky.
We were laughing so hard that we couldn’t breathe,
No place to be, no reason to leave.
Just two best friends and a night so free,
Fireworks lighting up everything we could see.
[Pre-Chorus]
And for a moment, the world went quiet,
No worries, no pain, nothing left to fight it.
Just you beside me, and me beside you,
Under a sky painted red, white, and blue.
[Chorus]
I’ll never forget those summer nights,
Sitting in the trucks underneath those lights.
Laughing like forever was all we knew,
Me with my green eyes, you with your brown hair too.
Fireworks exploding, stars falling down,
Two best friends with the whole world drowned out.
If I could go back, I swear I would,
Just to feel that freedom like only we could.
Yeah, I’d go back…
To the Fourth of July with you.
[Verse 2]
We didn’t know those days would become memories,
Didn’t know someday we’d miss who we used to be.
The little conversations, the stupid jokes,
The moments that healed us when life felt broke.
We thought we had forever sitting right there,
Windows rolled down, summer everywhere.
And maybe that’s what made it beautiful too—
We weren’t chasing tomorrow,
We were just being us, me and you.
[Bridge]
So if time ever takes us different ways,
I’ll carry that night through all my days.
Your laugh, my smile, those fireworks above,
A little piece of freedom, a little piece of love.
Some memories fade, but that one never will—
Two trucks, one summer, and a world standing still.
[Final Chorus]
I’ll never forget those summer nights,
Red, white, blue burning across the sky.
Your brown hair, those big bright eyes,
My curls blowing underneath the July night.
And if I could rewind just one more time,
I’d sit right there and let the whole world pass by.
No matter where life takes me to,
A piece of that summer will always be me and you.
Fireworks fade…
But I’ll never forget you.
