It’s the Fourth of July and
I’m looking for the North Star
All my friends and me are
Falling asleep in my backyard

You’re dreaming of city lights
And girls with too much makeup
I’m dreaming of lonely nights
And I just want to wake up

Girls always get the best of me
My best friends get the rest of me
We’re losing track of time here
You’re in the back of my mind, dear

You’re dreaming of city lights
And girls with too much makeup
I’m dreaming of lonely nights
And I just want to wake up

You’re dreaming of city lights
And girls with too much makeup
I’m dreaming of lonely nights
And I just want to wake up

She said
“I don’t know a damn thing
About you
But I don’t know how to live
Without you”

You’re dreaming of city lights
And girls with too much makeup
I’m dreaming of lonely nights
And I just want to wake up

I always say the wrong things
At the wrong time
And I never get to sleep
For a long time
But I know that when I wake up
I know that when I wake up
I’m ready for the world
