Hallelujah's on the 4th of July

 

 

Time can build

And, time can turn what's built into rubble

And, time can heal what's broken

But, time can often feel hopeless

Steal the best of us

And, leave what's left of us to wonder why

 

And, I will try my best

To push past that hopeless "why"

Make time it's own demise

And, attempt a better life

 

So, I will sing of love for the rest of my life

Like bold Hallelujah's on the 4th of July

Bursting against a back lit sky

Thirsting beyond black and white

 

Time can teach

And, time can reach into a person's heart

And, time can miss it's own mark

But, time cannot by it's own merit impart

Itself a brand new start

Or, itself unto itself once it's gone by

 

And, I will try my best

To forge past what I've left behind

Make time a friend of mine

And, embrace a better life

 

So, I will sing of love for the rest of my life

Like bold Hallelujah's on the 4th of July

Bursting against a back lit sky

Thirsting beyond black and white
