Northern Weather

Lyrics

The fourth of July
I can see it clearly in the back of my mind
The fireworks
And the fire shined as if to give me a sign
Midnight venture
I'll always remember, how could I forget?
The glowing embers
And how the smoke drew lines in the sky

This year I'll try to forget
Just how that one year went
Replace the memories with the new
Then you’ll say, look how you grew

The fourth of July
Remember how I was doing just fine
We counted the stars
And by the soft pale light, we counted the scars
Tell me, did you forget?
Do you remember the day we met?
What did it mean to you?
And how awful is the truth?

Another summer day
And I just stay the same
Another year flies by
And here I sit trying to survive

This year I'll try to forget
Just how that one year went
Replace the memories with the new
Then you’ll say, look how you grew

I have this memory
That's shared by you and me
Or maybe I'm all alone
And you're the one who's grown
