Fireflies---Owl City you would not believe your eyes cause they fill the open air i'd like to make myself believe cause i'd get a thousand hugs a foxtrot above my head i'd like to make myself believe leave my door open just a crack to ten million fireflies i'd lke to make myself believe
if ten million fireflies
lit up the world as i fell asleep
and leave teardrops everywhere
you'd think me rude but i would just stand and stare
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
from ten thousand lightning bugs
as they tried to teach me how to dance
a sockhop beneath my bed
a disco ball is just hanging by a thread
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
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
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 bizzare
cause i saved a few and i keep them in a jar
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 i'd rather stay
awake when i'm asleep
because my dreams are bursting at the sea
