Fireflies
[00:21.42] You would not believe your eyes
[00:24.07] If ten million fireflies
[00:26.73] Lit up the world as I fell asleep
[00:32.05] 'Cause they'd fill the open air
[00:34.70] And leave teardrops everywhere
[00:36.83] You'd think me rude
[00:37.88] But I would just stand and stare
[00:42.93] I'd like to make myself believe
[00:46.65] That planet Earth turns slowly
[00:53.04] It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
[00:58.36] 'Cause everything is never as it seems
[01:04.21] 'Cause I'd get a thousand hugs
[01:06.86] From ten thousand lightning bugs
[01:09.51] As they tried to teach me how to dance
[01:14.83] A foxtrot above my head
[01:17.48] A sock hop beneath my bed
[01:19.60] A disco ball is just hanging by a thread
[01:22.79] (Thread, thread...)
[01:25.44] I'd like to make myself believe
[01:29.45] That planet Earth turns slowly
[01:35.56] It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
[01:41.15] 'Cause everything is never as it seems
[01:45.40] (When I fall asleep)
[01:49.39] Leave my door open just a crack
[01:52.30] (Please take me away from here)
[01:54.70] 'Cause I feel like such an insomniac
[01:57.88] (Please take me away from here)
[02:00.02] Why do I tire of counting sheep?
[02:03.23] (Please take me away from here)
[02:05.35] When I'm far too tired to fall asleep
[02:10.68] To ten million fireflies
[02:13.36] I'm weird 'cause I hate goodbyes
[02:16.02] I got misty eyes as they said farewell
[02:19.20] (Said farewell)
[02:21.32] But I'll know where several are
[02:23.98] If my dreams get real bizarre
[02:26.11] 'Cause I saved a few and I keep them in a jar
[02:29.82] (Jar, jar, jar...)
[02:32.21] I'd like to make myself believe
[02:36.20] That planet Earth turns slowly
[02:42.31] It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
[02:47.62] 'Cause everything is never as it seems (when I fall asleep)
[02:53.72] I'd like to make myself believe
[02:57.45] That planet Earth turns slowly
[03:03.55] It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
[03:08.87] 'Cause everything is never as it seems (when I fall asleep)
[03:14.98] I'd like to make myself believe
[03:18.70] That planet Earth turns slowly
[03:25.07] It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
[03:30.38] Because my dreams are bursting at the seams
