Lyrics: Elliot Smith. Independence Day.

Future butterfly gonna spend the day
Higher than high
You'll be beautiful confusion
Ooh, once I was you

I saw you caught between
All the people out making the scene
And a bright ideal tomorrow
Ooh, don't go too far, stay who you are

Everybody knows
Everybody knows
Everybody knows
You only live a day
But it's brilliant anyway

Saw you up a perfect place
It's gonna happen soon but not today
So go to sleep, make the change
I'll meet you here tomorrow, Independence Day
Independence Day, Independence Day
