Fireflies Lyrics by Kennyoung

2020

[Verse 1]
\nYou would not believe your eyes if ten million fireflies
\nLit up the world as I fell asleep
\n'Cause they'd fill the open air and leave teardrops everywhere
\nYou'd think me rude but I would just stand and stare
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nI'd like to make myself believe
\nThat planet Earth turns slowly
\nIt's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
\n'Cause everything is never as it seems
\n
\n[Verse 2]
\n'Cause I'd get a thousand hugs from ten thousand lightning bugs
\nAs they tried to teach me how to dance
\nA foxtrot above my head, a sock hop beneath my bed
\nA disco ball is just hanging by a thread
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nI'd like to make myself believe
\nThat planet Earth turns slowly
\nIt's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
\n'Cause everything is never as it seems (When I fall asleep)
\n
\n[Bridge]
\nLeave my door open just a crack
\n(Please take me away from here)
\n'Cause I feel like such an insomniac
\n(Please take me away from here)
\nWhy do I tire of counting sheep
\n(Please take me away from here)
\nWhen I'm far too tired to fall asleep?
\n
\n[Verse 3]
\nTo ten million fireflies, I'm weird 'cause I hate goodbyes
\nI got misty eyes as they said farewell (They said farewell)
\nBut I'll know where several are if my dreams get real bizarre
\n'Cause I saved a few and I keep them in a jar (Jar, jar, jar)
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nI'd like to make myself believe
\nThat planet Earth turns slowly
\nIt's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
\n'Cause everything is never as it seems (When I fall asleep)
\nI'd like to make myself believe
\nThat planet Earth turns slowly
\nIt's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
\n'Cause everything is never as it seems (When I fall asleep)
\n
\n[Outro]
\nI'd like to make myself believe
\nThat planet Earth turns slowly
\nIt's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
\nBecause my dreams are bursting at the seams\n\n
