Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Someone struck a match against the night
All I could see was you and I
I was captivated
A perfect little dream inside my head
And then reality crept in and erased it
[Pre-Chorus]
For a while, I thought that I could hold you
But you were just a temporary high
[Chorus]
Firefly, you drew me to you
Your beauty shines and lights up the sky
And you don't know it, do you?
I wish I could keep you, firefly
Firefly
[Verse 2]
Something so beautiful and free
Was as never meant to be caged in
I thought I had you in my hand
I tried to catch you, but I can't
Chase the wind
[Pre-Chorus]
And just as I reach out to touch you
I remind myself, you were meant to fly
[Chorus]
Firefly, you drew me to you
Your beauty shines and lights up the sky
And you don't know it, do you?
I wish I could keep you, firefly
Firefly
[Bridge]
I like to think I'd be all that you wanted
Not even that is enough
[Chorus]
Firefly, you drew me to you
Your beauty shines and lights up the sky
And you don't know it, do you?
I wish I could keep you, firefly
Firefly
