4th Of July Lyrics

Didn't think I needed you
Never seemed to
But I'm living proof
And now I'm brand new
Rename me
Baby claim me I've been changed, see
You make me over
You make me over
Didn't think I needed you
Never seemed to
But I'm living proof

Didn't think I needed you.
Never seemed to.
But I'm living proof.
And now I'm brand new.
Rename me.
Baby claim me I've been changed, see
You make me over
You make me over
Didn't think I needed you
Never seemed to
But I'm living proof

Didn't think I needed you.
Never seemed to.
But I'm living proof.
And now I'm brand new.
Rename me
Baby claim me I've been changed, see
You make me over
You make me over
Didn't think I needed you
Never seemed to
But I'm living proof

Nothing I'll ever say or do will be as good as loving you.
Nothing I'll ever say or do will be as good as loving you.
Nothing I'll ever say or do will be as good as loving you.
Nothing I'll ever say or do will be as good as loving you.
You make me high
You make me high
You make me high
You make me high
You make me high
You make me high
You make me
Just like the sky, like the 4th of July
Just like the sky, like the 4th of July
Just like the sky, like the 4th of July
Just like the sky, like the 4th of July
You make me high
Just like the sky, like the 4th of July
You make me high
Just like the sky, like the 4th of July
You make me high
Just like the sky, like the 4th of July
You make me high
Just like the sky, like the 4th of July
You make me high
Just like the sky, like the 4th of July
Just like the sky, like the 4th of July

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
