You and I were, you and I were fire, fire, fire) It was the fourth of July You and I were, you and I were fire, fire, fireworks That went off too soon And I miss you in the June gloom, too It was the fourth of July You and I were, you and I were fire, fire, fireworks I said I'd never miss you But I guess you never know May the bridges I have burned light my way back home On the fourth of July I'll be as honest as you let me I miss your early morning company If you get me You are my favorite "what if" You are my best "I'll never know" And I'm starting to forget Just what summer ever meant to you What did it ever mean to you?

I just got too lonely, lonely, whoa In between being young and being right You were my Versailles at night It was the fourth of July You and I were, you and I were fire, fire, fireworks That went off too soon And I miss you in the June gloom, too It was the fourth of July You and I were, you and I were fire, fire, fireworks I said I'd never miss you But I guess you never know May the bridges I have burned light my way back home On the fourth of July My 9 to 5 is cutting open old scars Again and again 'til I'm stuck in your head Had my doubts, but I let them out You are the drought And I'm the holy water you have been without And all my thoughts of you They could heat or cool the room And no, don't tell me you're crying Oh, honey, you don't have to lie Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't mean any of it I just got too lonely, lonely, whoa In between being young and being right You were my Versailles at
Good morning/afternoon Ms Kondekakis and fellow students. The song I have chosen is I was only 19 ( A walk in the green light) by Redgum. Released in March 1983, Redgum lead guitarist John Schumann wrote the song based on experiences and hardships he heard from from veterans who were fighting in the Vietnam war in 1955-1975.The song was first sung at a concert which was performed after the Australian Vietnam veterans “welcome home parade” which was held in Sydney on 3rd october 1987. Almost 60,000 australians, including ground troops, air force, and navy personnel, served in Vietnam. 521 died as a result of the war and 3,000 were wounded.

It was not particularly hot that Fourth of July many years ago, but looking back it was the heat that impressed itself upon me the most. The true heat was much more than the temperature. The true heat that I felt was from the long, winding, awe-inspiring chase that the cops gave my friends and me.
Walking out the door and find you there, still haven’t done your hair. Pull yourself together you tell yourself, it’s all the weather. Break your surroundings before you try, I swear you try. California can’t solve you, I can’t solve you. I’m a piece of you that could fall off, at any point.
“If what they say is ‘nothing is forever’/ Then what makes.../ Love the exception” (“Hey Ya”)? Every relationship has its ups and downs. Most relationships end, some because of infidelity, but most relationships begin with love. “Hey Ya” is a song about a romance that has begun to fall apart, though it takes both people a while to notice. The musical The Last Five Years chronicles the romance of Jamie and Cathy in two separate timelines. Cathy’s timeline begins at the end of the relationship and goes backwards while Jamie’s starts at the beginning. Both OutKast’s 2003 hit “Hey Ya!” and Jason Robert Brown’s musical The Last Five Years explore the themes of love, infidelity, and loss of love in a relationship through song.
Whether it is a happy memory or a sad memory Green Day has covered it. In the song “Time of Your Life” the memories are happier and the song is much more detailed. In the song “Wake Me up When September Ends” the memories are much sadder. The modes and moods are the two biggest differences in the two songs. While the biggest similarities are they are both about memories. Both of these songs reflect on memories in a person’s life.
It 's a nice day in July, the third, the day before all of the excitement. Families are out and about standing in lines wrapped around the store buying kerosene for their grills. Of course you can’t forget the Hotdogs, hamburgers, buns, jello, cake, icecream and popsicles. Any kind of food you could ever want and most in the color red white or blue. People are flocking to the firework stands to buy as many of the biggest and baddest fire works they have to offer. Kids spending there allowance on rockets, snakes, poppers, parachutes, and smoke bombs. Fourth of July is almost in full swing just a few more things before the big party. While all of these people are running around like ants in a frenzy swarming to the melted ice cream cone on the hot pavement. My aunt, uncle, and cousins are at their house preparing for the big party an annual fourth of july
...ll my days I pine for is to go back to my house and see my day of homecoming."
Now the i never wanted anymore in my head part actually again is referring to math in my life.(wow what a surprise) Now the second set of lyrics are referring to any homework I get, whenever I get, or got the massive packets from global studies i would always go a little crazy because they are as I already said, massive!! I mean the halverson might not think it’s much but for me almost 20 pages of work is to much. So at the beginning of this essay I said that I would tell anybody reading this about how this relates to my life and i have shown my ideas.
In a July 3, 1776 letter to his wife, John Adams declared that the signing of the Declaration of Independence should be a "great anniversary Festival" and "solemnized with Pomp and Parade, with Shews, Games, Sports, Guns, Bells, Bonfires and Illuminations from one End of this Continent to the other from this Time forward forever more."
new friendships, my summer was full of new and old experiences. Though over too soon, I
A variety of locations were also set up where families could go to enjoy their time at the beach in a multitude of ways. There were stalls that offered interactive sessions with the children, teaching them exactly what Fourth of July meant to America and why it was such an important day in the history of the United States. Other tents sold souvenirs, towels, and morning glory sparklers for the day. In a secluded corner, a local band played bright tunes with their sun-beated guitars and intimate drum solos. Some teenagers stood in lines waiting to show off their strength and aiming skills to their girlfriends in hopes of winning them stuffed animals. There was a small section dedicated to dancing where couples would either clap and watch the public dancers dance to various tunes like, “Hey! Macarena!” This was the fun that they were all having in order to pass time for the main event later in the
This also means that the song “See You Again” is still on the radio. When I came to Nicholls with my best friend, we began to spend a lot of time in the car taking trips back and forth every weekend, and she already knows the deal with that song due to my reactions every time the song comes on. In the beginning, I didn’t want to just change her radio station, so I would leave it on, but she realized that it affected my mood negatively because I would then get very quiet, and start tearing up a little bit; I tried to hide it, but it must not have worked. She asked me about how my mood can just change completely because of that one song, so I had to tell her the story and how that song has an underlying significance in my life. Now, if that song comes on, I don’t have to ask to change it, she is already on top of it.
I’ve been a good wife; attentive, loving, dedicated. Even after the accident, I stayed with you because I thought I loved you. I did at first, but now loving you seems a very silly notion. I will be ending my live at ten-thirty. If you care to say goodbye, come to me at the Manhattan Bridge.
The last thing was when we were all in the garden and this was describing my childhood.
