    Backstory:
    Dan and Sarah and I got together for a write and we started throwing hooks around. I had this idea, 5th of July, about the feeling of the day after a romance falls apart and this is the song we wrote to that idea.

    5th of July John Cirillo (ASCAP) IPI#334682653 Dan Reifsnyder (ASCAP) IPI# 334488645 Sarah Spencer( ASCAP) IPI# 424449461 We were searching for freedom Bent on believing We found it in each other arms Sparkling and spinning, Lit up and living With gun powder love in our hearts Chorus: He was kissing me, wanting me; fireworks and flames Holding me, telling me beautiful things Set the world on fire, till we burned out the sky, When the smoke cleared, there were tears in my eyes I felt just like the fifth of July I felt just like the fifth of July We ran out of matches There’s nothing but ashes We fell like stars to the ground Though we’re just embers I’ll always remember How high we were before we came down Chorus: He was kissing me, wanting me; fireworks and flames Holding me, telling me beautiful things Set the world on fire, till we burned out the sky, When the smoke cleared, there were tears in my eyes I felt just like the fifth of July I felt just like the fifth of July Now I’m missing him and wanting those fireworks and flames Still hear him telling me beautiful things I’ve got no regrets, no, I won’t forget Nothing lasts forever when it burns so bright And when the smoke cleared from the dark empty sky I felt just like the fifth of July I felt just like the fifth of July © 2015 john.cirillo@gmail.com/831.359.0161
