The day you lost your Fathers pride
The fist that made you run and hide
Then he watched you become a man
You're on your feet again
The flash of light that brought you home
No one enters this world alone
As a kid you went against the voice
You had little choice
The phone lit up and I
Fell to the floor
I just want to go back to
The night before
I never expected that
I'd hear the news
That night on the 4th of July
Please tell me you're coming back
I can't stand to face the fact
I never got to tell you goodbye
I never got to say
Goodbye
♪
Caught by surprise by this added life
You didn't know how to handle it
Easier just to hide, I suppose
It doesn't matter what you're told
It's what you hear that makes you whole
Cause in the end we're on our own
Just trying to get by
The phone lit up and I
Fell to the floor
I just want to go back to
The night before
I never expected that
I'd hear the news
That night on the 4th of July
Please tell me you're coming back
I can't stand to face the fact
I never got to tell you goodbye
I never got to say
Goodbye
♪
I don't know what the future holds
It's all a part of the great unknown
I guess it just to keep us on our toes
The phone lit up and I
Fell to the floor
I just want to go back to
The night before
I never expected that
I'd hear the news
That night on the 4th of July
Please tell me you're coming back
I can't stand to face the fact
I never got to tell you goodbye
I never expected that
