Firefly
Not everything's a metaphor
Just some things seem too real to be real
Dancing in the rain in the gazebo by the pond next to the field
Dreaming of the time that you said you would teach me how to feel
Say good bye to fear
Let's get out of here
In your heart
There is a light that never goes out (like the Smiths)
Like a firefly
Lighting up the sky
In your heart
There is a light that never goes out (like the Smiths)
Like a firefly
Lighting up the sky
We got bored again
And boarded up the house inside our head
And then the crows came in
And made a nest out of our bed
We came back as friends
The lights were still on in the shed
And if that's not a metaphor
I don't know what is
In your heart
There is a light that never goes out (like the Smiths)
Like a firefly
Lighting up the sky
I'm pretty sure
All of my dreams and goals
Weren't mine they were yours
I'm a little less alone
Than I was before
The knowledge that you are in the world
Sleeping next to me
And wake up in the morning
In your heart
There is a light that never goes out (like the Smiths)
Like a firefly
Lighting up the sky
Just some things seem too real to be real
Dancing in the rain in the gazebo by the pond next to the field
Dreaming of the time that you said you would teach me how to feel
Say good bye to fear
Let's get out of here
In your heart
There is a light that never goes out (like the Smiths)
Like a firefly
Lighting up the sky
In your heart
There is a light that never goes out (like the Smiths)
Like a firefly
Lighting up the sky
We got bored again
And boarded up the house inside our head
And then the crows came in
And made a nest out of our bed
We came back as friends
The lights were still on in the shed
And if that's not a metaphor
I don't know what is
In your heart
There is a light that never goes out (like the Smiths)
Like a firefly
Lighting up the sky
I'm pretty sure
All of my dreams and goals
Weren't mine they were yours
I'm a little less alone
Than I was before
The knowledge that you are in the world
Sleeping next to me
And wake up in the morning
In your heart
There is a light that never goes out (like the Smiths)
Like a firefly
Lighting up the sky
