{sub-bass drone} {atmospheric vinyl crackle} Yeah,
July first. She walked out.
{soft piano chord}
It was the first of July when she packed her bags No
long goodbye, just a couple of tags Left the key on the
counter, didn't say a word Now the quiet in this room is
the loudest thing I've heard I watched the taillights fade into the
summer rain Cold sweat,
heavy chest, waking up to the pain
She broke my heart on the first of July
(on the first of July)
Underneath a grey and empty sky (sky
so high) Didn't even look me in the eye
(yeah) Just left me here to wonder why
{soaring vocal harmony} Calendars flipping but I'm frozen in place Every corner
of this house still holding her face Summer heat outside but my
world is freezing cold Staring at the empty space she used to
hold Trying to rewrite the story,
mend the broken thread But I'm just pacing circles inside my own
head (inside my head)
She broke my heart on the first of July
(on the first of July)
Underneath a grey and empty sky (sky so
high) Didn't even look me in the eye
(yeah) Just left me here to wonder why
{guitar solo highlights}
First of July...
Yeah, she broke it.
{drums fade
out} {ambient piano
chords lingering} (first of July...) {vinyl crackle to end}
