David And The Citizens 4th Of July Lyrics

4th Of July Lyrics

A tenner for you thoughts

what is this you've got on your mind?

always there staring

with eyes from the 60's, black and white

every day and every night

a tenner for your thoughts



A smile and a handshake won't reduce

this ocean of time between us

my heart takes an extra beat

just from the thought that we will never meet

my heart takes an extra beat

but I close my eyes and get back in line

I close my eyes and get back behind you all

'cos today is a day to feel small



No time for thinking

tomorrow like 4th of July

I'll be the fire and you'll be the light

imagine their surprise



So cut off another lock of your hair

to return to yourself

stop walking in circles, 'cos there's nothing there

cut off a lock of your hair



And close your eyes and get back in line

close your eyes and get back behind them all

'cos today is a day to feel small
