I came from the north escaping convention
Modern invention that won't let me be
To the shores of St. Martin with my fiction addiction
To restart the fire a dreamer's remedy
Independence Day and all I remember
Was a midnight rainbow that fell from the sky
As I stand on the beach I slowly surrender
To the child in me that can't say goodbye
The rockets in the air and the people everywhere
Put away their differences for a while
Oh I am still a child when it comes to something wild
Oh that was the night, I painted the sky
I dug in the sand like a boy on a mission
And there in my hands a pyro's delight
If un bombardier a night time magician
I sparked the sky as the rockets fly from view
The rockets in the air and the people everywhere
Put away their differences for a while
Yes I am still a child when it comes to something wild
Oh that was the night, I painted the sky
Oh the mortars they roar in anticipation
Proceeding the sigh of the uplifted eyes
It showers us all in sulfuric sensation
The colors shine and a fiery rhyme tonight
The rockets in the air and the people everywhere
Won't you put away your differences for a while
I am but a child when it comes to something wild
Oh that was the night that was the night
Oh that was the night, I painted the sky
Painted the sky, painted the sky
