To be the last to leave 
The last to be gone 
Stolen from the ones 
Who held onto it

To be the last in line 
Oh, the ones that live on 
Silhouette of a dream 
Treasured by the ones 
Who hung onto it 

Almost a breakdown 
Of our love affair 
The stilleto cuts quick 
Like a whip through the air 

Long distance winners 
Will we survive the fight? 
Not one of [bad word] 
From the firelight 

I would love to believe 
I believe what you say 
In the drama of the moment 
Well, there is no easy way 
No one ever leaves 
Everyone stays close 'til the fire fades 

I would love to believe 
Ooh, I believe what you say 
In the drama of the moment 
For us there is no easy way 
No one ever leaves 
Everyone stays close 'til the fire fades 

To be the last to leave 
What caused the fearsome 
Divorce in the night 
When there was [bad word] 

Well, to survive, do it right
Oh, you believe in the five 
To survive the distance 
Everyone fights 
Everyone fights 
And the fireflies 

Oooh, what happened to my feelings? 
We are dreamers in the night 
Some call it my nightmare 
My five fireflies 
Well, like a sinking ship but not one of [bad word] 

Of our love affair 
Oh, like a whip through the air  

I would love to believe 
I believe what you say
