jimmy buffett - the night i painted the sky lyrics
i came from the north
escaping convention
modern invention that won’t let me be
to the sh-r-s of st. martin
with my fiction addiction
to restart the fire
a dreamer’s remedy
independence day
and all i remember
was a midnight rainbow
that fell from the sky
as i stand on the beach
i slowly surrender
to the child in me
that can’t say goodbye
the rockets in the air
and the people everywhere
put away their differences for a while
oh i am still a child
when it comes to something wild
oh that was the night
i painted the sky
i dug in the sand
like a boy on a mission
and there in my hands
a pyro’s delight
if un bombardier
a night time magician
i sparked the sky
as the rockets fly from view
the rockets in the air
and the people everywhere
put away their differences for a while
yes i am still a child
when it comes to something wild
oh that was the night
i painted the sky
oh the mortars they roar
in antic-p-tion
proceeding the sigh
of the uplifted eyes
it showers us all
in sulfuric sensation
the colors shine
and a fiery rhyme tonight
the rockets in the air (ooooh…)
and the people everywhere
won’t you put away your differences for a while
i am but a child
when it comes to something wild
oh that was the night
that was the night
oh that was the night
i painted the sky
painted the sky
painted the sky
