(Mariah en off)
Trembling
Starry eyed
As you put your hand in mine…
It was twilight
On the Fourth of July
Sparkling colors were
Strewn across the sky
And we sat close enough
That we just barely touched
While roman candles
Went soaring above us and baby
Then you put your hand in mine
And we wandered away
I was trembling inside
But I wanted to stay (Stay)
Pressed against you there
and leave the world behind
On that Fourth of July
(ohh)
So starry eyed
(So starry eyed)
On the flowery hillside
Breathless and fervid
Amid the dandelions
As it swept over me
(swept over me)
Like the wind through the trees
I felt you sigh with a
Sweet intensity and baby
Then you put your hand in mind
(hand in mind)
And we floated away
(floated away, away)
Delicately lay entwined
In an intimate daze
(intimate daze)
A crescent moon began to shine
(Began to shine)
And I wanted to stay (stay)
Tangled up with you among the fireflies
On the Fourth of July
Thunder clouds
(Thunder clouds)
Hung around
(Hung around)
So threateningly
(So threateningly)
Ominously hovering
And the sky
(And the sky)
Opened wide
(Opened wide)
Showering
(oh yeah, yeah)
Then you put your hand in mine
(Your hand in mine)
And we ran from the rain
(In the pooring rain, from the rain)
Tentatively kissed goodnight
And went our seperate ways
(ways, yeah)
And I’ve never truly felt the way that I
Felt the Fourth of July
(Fourth of July, Fourth of July)
Truly I have never felt the same inside
Like that Fourth of July
(Fourth of July, Fourth of July)
Truly I could never feel the same as I
Felt that Fourth of July
(Fourth of July)
Oh baby
