----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You would not believe your eyes,
If ten million fireflies
Lit up the world as I fall asleep
Cause they'd fill the open air
And leave teardrops everywhere
You'd think me rude, but
I would just stand&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.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cause I'd get a thousand hugs,
From ten thousand lightening bugs,
As they tried to teach me how to dance.
A foxtrot above my head,
A sock-hop beneath my bed,
The disco ball is just hanging by a 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 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 way 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 bizarre,
Cause I saved a few,
And keep them in a 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.
