[Intro]      [Verse 1] We counted the stars on the fourth of July Wishin’ we were rockets burstin into the sky. Talkin’ about the redemption...leavin’ things behind As the sun sank west of the Mendocino county line.              As fierce as Monday mornin’ feelin’ washed away I orchestrated paradise but couldn’t make you stay. You dance with horses through the sands of time As the sun sinks west of the Mendocino county line. [Chorus] 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 used to make you happy once Upon a time but the sun sank west of the Mendocino county line.             [Verse 2] The two of us together felt nothing but right Feelin’ near immortal every Friday night. Lost in our convictions lips stained with wine As the sun sank west of the Mendocino county line. [Chorus] 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 used to make you happy once Upon a time but the sun sank west of the Mendocino county line. [Bridge] I don’t talk to you too much these days I just thank the Lord pictures don’t fade I spent with an angel just passing through Now all that’s left is this image of you. [Instrumental]                              [Verse 3] We counted the stars on the fourth of July Wishin’ we were rockets burstin into the sky. Talkin’ about the redemption...leavin’ things behind [Chorus] 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 used to make you happy once Upon a time but the sun sank west of the Mendocino county line.     But the sun sank west of the Mendocino county line          Mendocino county line oh the Mendocino county line. Repeat until the end
