๐ Lyrics
Well Papa, go to bed now, 'cause it's getting late
And nothing we can say can change anything now
I'll be leaving in the morning, from St. Mary's Gate
We wouldn't change this thing even if we could somehow
'Cause the darkness of this house has got the best of us
And there's a darkness in this town that's got us too
But they can't touch me now, and you can't touch me now
And 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 just what it always was with us
We chose the words and yeah, we drew the lines
There was just no way that this house could hold the two of us anymore
I guess that we were just too much of the same kind
Well say goodbye, it's Independence Day
All boys must run away, come Independence Day
Won't you just 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, she's deserted tonight, clear down to Breaker's Point
Well there's a lot of people leaving town now, leaving their friends and their homes
At night they walk that dark and dusty highway all alone
Well Papa, go to bed now, 'cause it's getting late
And nothing we can say can change anything now
Because there's just different people coming down here now and they see things in different ways
And soon everything we've known will just be swept away
Ooh say goodbye, it's Independence Day
Papa, now I know the things you wanted, that you could not say
But can't you just say goodbye, it's Independence Day
I swear I never meant to take those things away
And nothing we can say can change anything now
I'll be leaving in the morning, from St. Mary's Gate
We wouldn't change this thing even if we could somehow
'Cause the darkness of this house has got the best of us
And there's a darkness in this town that's got us too
But they can't touch me now, and you can't touch me now
And 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 just what it always was with us
We chose the words and yeah, we drew the lines
There was just no way that this house could hold the two of us anymore
I guess that we were just too much of the same kind
Well say goodbye, it's Independence Day
All boys must run away, come Independence Day
Won't you just 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, she's deserted tonight, clear down to Breaker's Point
Well there's a lot of people leaving town now, leaving their friends and their homes
At night they walk that dark and dusty highway all alone
Well Papa, go to bed now, 'cause it's getting late
And nothing we can say can change anything now
Because there's just different people coming down here now and they see things in different ways
And soon everything we've known will just be swept away
Ooh say goodbye, it's Independence Day
Papa, now I know the things you wanted, that you could not say
But can't you just say goodbye, it's Independence Day
I swear I never meant to take those things away
