The Night I Painted the Sky Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I came from the north, escaping convention
Modern invention that won't let me be
To the shores of St. Martin with my fiction addiction
To restart the fire, a dreamer's remedy

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 3]
I dug in the sand like a boy on a mission
And there in my hands, a pyro's delight
Un bombadier, a night time magician
I sparked the sky as the rockets fly from view

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 4]
Oh the mortars they roar in anticipation
Proceeding the sigh of the uplifted eyes
It showers us all in sulfuric sensation
The colors shine and a fiery rhyme tonight

[Chorus]
The rockets in the air 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
