Lyrics Walk Off The Earth – Fireflies

You would not believe your eyes
If ten million fireflies
Lit up the world as I fell asleep
‘Cause they feel the open air

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 get a thousand hugs
From ten thousand lightning bugs
As they try to teach me how to dance
A fox tried to burn my head
A sock hop beneath my bed
Disco ball is just handing 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
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

To ten million fireflies
Awake as I hate goodbyes
Got misty eyes as they say farewell
Please take me away

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
(Take me away)

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
(Take me away)

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
I fall sleep

I’d like to make myself believe
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
