Firefly
It flickered and disappeared
But borrowed me
From what I could call myself
Circling
Was it a shooting star
Or a firefly?
I'll never know.
It's unlikely we ever meet
Or cross a path
But a moment we shared a spot
Along the map
I never did catch her name
From all the laughter
And I'll never know
Without a bend on
An ear or the spine
The answers sit in
Books I'll never read
But whisper from the shelves and say
"We've got a secret for you"
We rented a room with a roof
Made of tin
We only lasted through June
Before the drought did end
I wanted to hear the sound
Of a lazy rain
But I'll never know and it's alright
Without a bend on
An ear or the spine
The answers in
The sky I'll never reach
But whisper from the stars and say "We've got"
But borrowed me
From what I could call myself
Circling
Was it a shooting star
Or a firefly?
I'll never know.
It's unlikely we ever meet
Or cross a path
But a moment we shared a spot
Along the map
I never did catch her name
From all the laughter
And I'll never know
Without a bend on
An ear or the spine
The answers sit in
Books I'll never read
But whisper from the shelves and say
"We've got a secret for you"
We rented a room with a roof
Made of tin
We only lasted through June
Before the drought did end
I wanted to hear the sound
Of a lazy rain
But I'll never know and it's alright
Without a bend on
An ear or the spine
The answers in
The sky I'll never reach
But whisper from the stars and say "We've got"
