It was the Fourth of July when you said you loved me
And since then it all changed
We changed
But we were better in part, because love made us so
But worse in part because through that love we discovered envy and greed
Envy of people who took either of our time away from the other
Greedy for more of each other
We also found sacrifice and understanding
Even through our ups and downs we found each other
It's always you
It terrifies me
