Fireflies Lyrics

First full moon
Summer comes, it took so long...

The fields are green
Lie and wait for me to run
And fall to the ground

Just see those stars
See the trees bend down to catch you on
It's a strange night, blue sky's alive
And if you're coming out tonight
See the waves of dancing fireflies
See the way we end these sullen summer nights

A winter sky opens up and pours out
White paper on a frozen ground
To still a lie
Piled with leaves
Crack, the coves fade from red to brown
The seasons are dead and gone

Just see those stars
I feel them looking down
Strange how they never fade away
They never left us in the night
Packed their bags and caught the train
Hopped aboard and waved goodbye, "Wish I could stay."
"Wish I could..."

Just see those stars...
I feel you looking down
Strange how you never seem to change

Now the lift
Passin' our lives
To find our hope, in dark and light
To find our hope in a starless sky
When it seems like all is lost, open your eyes
Open your eyes
