Owl City - Fireflies Lyrics and Video
you would not believe your eyes
if ten million fireflies
lit up the world as i fell asleep
cuz they fill the open air
and leave teardrops everywhere
you think me rude, but i would just stand and stare
id like to make myself believe
that planet earth turns slowly
its hard to say that id rather stay awake when im asleep
cuz everything is never as it seems
cuz i get a thousand hugs
from ten thousand lightning bugs
as they try to teach me how to dance
a foxtrot above my head
a sockhop beneath my bed
the disco ball is just hanging by a thread (thread, thread)
id like to make myself believe
that planet earth turns slowly
its hard to say that id rather stay awake when im asleep
cuz everything is never as it seems (when i fall asleep)
leave my door open just a crack (please take me away from here)
cuz i feel like such an insomniac (please take me away from here)
why do i tire of counting sheep? (please take me away from here)
when im far to tired to fall asleep
to ten million fireflies
im weird cuz i hate goodbyes
i got misty eyes as they said farewell (said farewell)
but i know where several are
if my dreams get real bizarre
cuz i saved a few and i keep 'em in a jar
id like to make myself believe
that planet earth turns slowly
its hard to say that id rather stay awake when im asleep
cuz everything is never as it seems (when i fall asleep)
id like to make myself believe
that planet earth turns slowly
its hard to say that id rather stay awake when im asleep
cuz everything is never as it seems (when i fall asleep)
id like to make myself believe
that planet earth turns slowly
its hard to say that id rather stay awake when im asleep
because my dreams are bursting at the seams
