Fierflies(by 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 teardrops everywhere 
You’d think me rude 
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 
sock hop beneath my bed 
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 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 

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 

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
