The moon is full but my arms are empty
All night long how I've pleaded and cried
You always said the day that you'd leave me
Would be a cold day in July

Your bags are packed but not a word is spoken
I guess we said everything with goodbye
Time goes so fast when promises get broken
'Cause here's that cold day in July

Sun's comin' up, comin' up, down on mainstreet
Children shout as they're runnin' out to play
Head in my hands, here I am standin' in my bare feet
Watchin' you drive away, watchin' you drive away

You said that we were gonna last forever
You said our love would never die
It looks like spring and feels like sunny weather
But it's a cold day in July

Sun's comin' up, comin' up, down on mainstreet
Children shout as they're runnin' out to play
Head in my hands, here I am standin' in my bare feet
Watchin' you drive away, watchin' you drive away

The moon is full but my arms are empty
All night long how I've pleaded and cried
Sun's comin' up on the day you're gonna leave me
It's a cold day in July, here comes that cold day in July
