Macedonian & Back > Owl City's "Fireflies"

You would not believe your eyes
If ten million fireflies
Lit up the world as I fell asleep
Cuz they fill the open
And leave tear drops everywhere
You'd think me rude
But I would just stand and stare

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
Cause everything is never as it seems

So I'll get a thousand hugs
From ten thousand lightning bugs
As they tried to teach me how to dance
A foxtrot above my head
A sock hop under my bed
Disco ball is just hanging by a thread
( Thread , thread ... )

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
Cause everything is never as it seems
( When I fall asleep )

Leave my door open just a crack
( Please let me away from here )
Because I feel like such an Insomniac
( Please let me away from here )
Why do I tire of counting sheep ?
( Please let me away from here )
When I'm too tired to fall asleep
( Ha - ha )

To ten million fireflies
I 'm weird because I hate goodbye
I got misty eyes as they said farewell
( Said Goodbye )
But I'll know where several are
If my dreams get real bizarre
Because I saved a few and I keep them in a jar
( Jar , jar , jar ... )

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
Cause everything is never as it seems
( When I fall asleep )

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
Because my dreams are bursting at the seams
