Fireflies
Owl City
You would not believe your eyes if ten million fireflies lit up the world as I fell asleep
Cause they'd fill the open air and leave tear drops everywhere
You'd think [bad word] but I would just stand and 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 lightning bugs
As they tried to teach me how to dance
foxtrot above my head, a sock-hop beneath my bed
The disco ball is just hanging by a thread (Thread, 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 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 (Said farewell)
But I'll know where several are if my dreams get real bizarre
'Cause I saved a few and I keep them in a jar (Jar, jar, 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 
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
