fireflies
[00:21.04] You would not believe your eyes
[00:23.71] If ten million fireflies
[00:26.36] Lit up the world as I fell asleep
[00:31.68] 'Cause they'd fill the open air
[00:34.33] And leave teardrops everywhere
[00:36.72] You'd think me rude
[00:37.79] But I would just stand and stare
[00:42.30] I'd like to make myself believe
[00:46.55] That planet Earth turns slowly
[00:52.66] It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
[00:57.72] 'Cause everything is never as it seems
[01:03.84] 'Cause I'd get a thousand hugs
[01:06.50] From ten thousand lightning bugs
[01:08.88] As they tried to teach me how to dance
[01:14.47] A foxtrot above my head
[01:17.12] A sock hop beneath my bed
[01:19.24] A disco ball is just hanging by a thread
[01:25.08] I'd like to make myself believe
[01:29.34] That planet Earth turns slowly
[01:35.45] It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
[01:40.50] 'Cause everything is never as it seems
[01:45.01] (When I fall asleep)
[01:49.01] Leave my door open just a crack
[01:52.20] (Please take me away from here)
[01:54.58] 'Cause I feel like such an insomniac
[01:57.23] (Please take me away from here)
[01:59.89] Why do I tire of counting sheep?
[02:02.83] (Please take me away from here)
[02:05.22] When I'm far too tired to fall asleep
[02:10.27] To ten million fireflies
[02:12.92] I'm weird 'cause I hate goodbyes
[02:15.58] I got misty eyes as they said farewell
[02:20.89] But I'll know where several are
[02:23.81] If my dreams get real bizarre
[02:25.94] 'Cause I saved a few and I keep them in a jar
[02:31.78] I'd like to make myself believe
[02:35.76] That planet Earth turns slowly
[02:42.14] It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
[02:47.19] 'Cause everything is never as it seems
[02:51.71] (When I fall asleep)
[02:53.30] I'd like to make myself believe
[02:57.02] That planet Earth turns slowly
[03:03.40] It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
[03:08.71] 'Cause everything is never as it seems
[03:12.95] (When I fall asleep)
[03:14.81] I'd like to make myself believe
[03:18.53] That planet Earth turns slowly
[03:24.64] It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
[03:29.96] Because my dreams are bursting at the seams
