You... looked just like my mother
|
Did when she was 19
|
Not afraid to die
|
I... started planning our future
|
You were just 19
|
Still a firefly
|
|
You got... terrible vision
|
You shoulda seen I was leavin'
|
When I first appeared
|
I... got bit by the footlights
|
I got caught in the headlights
|
in any place but here
|
|
Never say
|
You'll never leave
|
Cuz you'll never know til you try
|
In a jar
|
fireflies
|
Only last for one night
|
Only last for one night
|
|
Trains roll... like gamblers in slow mo
|
Tryin' to find good luck
|
When they couldn't find love
|
|
Oh yeah, and I'm... gonna sleep on the train tracks
|
It's gonna be a peaceful night
|
Then it's gonna get rough
|
|
Never say
|
You'll never leave
|
Cuz you'll never know til you try
|
In a jar
|
fireflies
|
Only last for one night
|
Only last for one night
|
|
I must have had a reason for leavin'
|
- Not one I could see
|
I must have had a reason for leavin'
|
- Must have been me
|
- Must have been me...
|
|
You... looked just like my mother
|
Did when she was 19
|
Not afraid to die
|
|
For the last time... I'm not your mother
|
And I was only 19
|
Still a firefly
|
