Owl City - Fireflies

You would not believe your eyes
If ten million fireflies
Light up the world as I fell asleep
'Cause they fill the open air
And leave teardrops everywhere
You'd think me rude
But I would just stand a stare

kertosäe:
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

kertosäe 2:
'Cause I'd get a thousand hugs
From ten thousand lightning bugs
As they tried to teach me how to dance
A foxtrot above my head
A sockhop beneath my bed
A disco ball is just hanging by a thread

kertosäe

When I fall asleep

Leave my door open just a crack
(please take me away from here)
'Cause 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 I'm far too tired to fall asleep

To ten million fireflies
I'm weird 'cause I hate goodbyes
I got misty eyes as they said farewell
But I'll know where several are
If my dreams get real bizzare
'Cause I saved a few and I keep them in a jar

kertosäe 2

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 busting at the seams
