4 de Julio
Obie Bermudez
4th of July
I've dreamed so many times of what I want to tell you
When I have you right in front of me, close to me
You with your letters always full of love
Your constancy was the embrace that calmed the pain
I still remember well that day
When through a phone and glass I could see you
When I told you 'you better find another love'
You refused and gave me hope from yesterday
Chorus:
4th of July, independence
Not the Yankee's, but my sentence
I served my time, I had patience
If I come out alive, it's because of your existence
When I get out and you receive me, I won't know how to start
Whether to kiss you, admire you, or just talk
Or maybe silence is the best explanation
Let my eyes be the ones to give you all my love
Those who have been inside know they can never forget
That prison strips you of illusions and humanity
But if a love is strong, nothing will tear it down
And it creates a path to start anew
Chorus:
4th of July, independence
Not the Yankee's, but my sentence
I served my time, I had patience
If I come out alive, it's because of your existence
I've dreamed so many times of what I want to tell you
When I have you close to me......
Chorus:
4th of July, independence
Not the Yankee's, but my sentence
I served my time, I had patience
If I come out alive, it's because of your existence...
