lyrics

Dreamt I died on the Fourth of July
Fireworks rained down while my friends all cried
Lit the esplanade up, real bright
When I dreamt I died on the Fourth of July

Dreamt I died crossing Longfellow
Watching kayaks cross below
Boston was a hometown I tried to know
When I dreamt I died crossing Longfellow

Dreamt I died in Somerville
Laid on back on a campus hill
I held my breath and the planets stood still
When I dreamt I died in Somerville

Dreamt I died in Colonie
The cars on Wolf Road sped right past me
I sat quietly as could be
When I dreamt I died in Colonie

Dreamt I died in Averill Park
On one of my walks 'round in the dark
Heard a falling breath and saw a giant spark
When I dreamt I died in Averill Park

Dreamt I died in outer space
Before I went I saw God's face
They turned away, said we'd meet some other place
When I dreamt I died in outer space

Dreamt I lived for a hundred years
Finally conquered all my fears
When I die don't cry a single tear
If I live for a hundred year

Dreamt I died on the Fourth of July
And my life didn't bother to pass me by
A voice said, 'Someday, you'll understand why,
Why you had to die on the Fourth of July."
