Lyrics

Counted the stars on the 4th of July Wishing we were rockets bursting in the sky Talking about redemption and leaving things behind As the sun sank west of the Mendocino county line Scarce as Monday morning feeling washed away I orchestrated paradise couldn't make you stay You dance with the horses through the sands of time As the sun sinks west of the Mendocino county line I have these pictures and I Keep these photographs to Remind me of a time These pictures and these photographs Let me know I'm doing fine I use to make you happy once upon a time But the sun sank west of the Mendocino county line The two of us together felt nothing but right Feeling we're immortal every Friday night Lost in our convictions lips stained with wine As the sun sank west of the Mendocino county line I have these pictures and I Keep these photographs to Remind me of a time These pictures and these photographs Let me know I'm doing fine I use to make you happy once upon a time But the sun sank west of the Mendocino county line I don't talk to you too much these days I just thank the Lord, pictures don't fade I spent time with an Angel just passing through Now all that's left is this image of you Counted the stars on the 4th of July Wishing we were rockets bursting in the sky Talking about redemption and leaving things behind I have these pictures and I Keep these photographs to Remind me of a time These pictures and these photographs Let me know I'm doing fine We use to be so happy once upon a time (Once upon a time) But the sun sank west of the Mendocino county line And the sun sank west of the Mendocino county line Mendocino county line Mendocino county line Mendocino county line
