Fireflies

You would not believe your eyes If ten million fireflies Lit up the world as I fell asleep Cause theyd fill the open air And leave teardrops everywhere Youd think me rude But I 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 everything is never as it seems I fall asleep litlle will fall asleep Cause Id get a thousand hugs ten thousand lightning bugs As they tried to teach me teach me how to dance A foxtrot above my head A sock hop beneath my bed A disco ball is just hanging by a thread Id like to make myself believe That planet Earth turns slowly Its hard to say that Id rather stay Awake when Im asleep Cause everything is never as it seems When I fall asleep baby When I fall asleep To ten million fireflies Im weird cause I hate goodbyes I got misty eyes as they said farewell But Ill know where several are If my dreams get real bizarre Cause I saved a few and I keep them 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 Cause everything is never as it seems
