Fireflies fireflies
Dance for me tonight
Tell me that you love me
and make the pain alright
The stars refuse to shine
And the moon won't come to play
So I need you to light the path
of the broken place I stay
I wish I could go beyond the street
where you so easily fly
But memories of love keep me here
Though I've done my best to try
Fireflies fireflies
I know my pleas are in vain
But I need someone with me tonight
To help rid me of the pain
Dance for me and light the dark
So it won't drown me yet
I can hear the crickets with you
Playing a song of regret
Oh how you tell my life
With words that I can't speak
Make me feel young again
So I won't feel so weak
Fireflies fireflies
I fear I'll never be free
So please, until the dark goes away
Won't you dance for me?
