Lyrics

Nice surprise; haven't seen you in so long
We laugh and you smile, and I stroke your hair
Drive me home in the same old car
The fourth of July
What am I, oh, what am I doing here?
Come on in. Yeah, stay for a while
Use my phone to check your calls and hang around
As you see, I am doing alright,
So let's step outside and make out on the fourth of July, yeah
I don't know much about the strange commitment world
I'm never in one space too long
Sometimes I feel that we could make this last
I must be wrong
Oh...
Once again, hanging out with all your friends
It's not my scene—No, I'm not green—
I'm only here for your company
Guys hanging around, trying to get down
Ain't got no time, or desire, to compete with them
I don't know much about the strange commitment world
I'm never in one space too long
Sometimes I feel that we could make this last
I must be wrong
It must be
I don't know much about the strange commitment world
I never stay in one space too long
And now I feel (Make this last)
This must be wrong
This must be wrong
This must be wrong
This must be wrong
