'Independence Day' by Bruce Springsteen.
Nothing we can say is gonna change anything now
I'll be leaving in the morning from St. Mary's Gate
We wouldn't change a thing even if we could somehow
Cause the darkness of house has got the best of us
There is a darkness in this town that's got us too
But they can't touch me now
And you can't touch me now
They ain't gonna do to me
What I watched them do to you
So say goodbye it's Independence Day
It's Independence Day
All down the line
Just say goodbye it's Independence Day
It's Independence Day this time
Now I don't know what it always was with us
We chose the words & we drew the lines
There just was no way this house could hold the two of us
I guess that we were just too much of the same kind
Well say goodbye it's Independence Day
It's Independence Day all boys must run away
So say goodbye it's Independence Day
All men must make their way come
Independence Day
Now the rooms are all empty down at Frankie's joint
And the highway is deserted clear down to Breaker's Point
There is a lot of people leaving town now
leaving their friends, their homes
All night they walk that dark & dusty highway all alone
Well Papa go to bed now, it's getting late
Nothing we can say can change anything now
Because there's just different people
coming down here now & they see things in different ways
And soon everything we've known will just be swept away
So say goodbye it's Independence Day
Papa now I know the things you wanted that you cannot say
But won't you just say goodbye it's Independence day
I swear I never meant to take those things away.
Happy St. George's Day !!
