You Would Not Believe Your Eyes
If Ten Million Fireflies
Light Up The World As I Fell Asleep

Cause They Fill The Open Air
And Leave Teardrops Everywhere
You'd Think me Rude
But I Wouuld 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

A Foxtrot Above My head
A Sockhop Beneath My Bed
A 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 Bizzare
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 I'd Rather Stay
Awake When I'm Asleep
Because My Dreams Are Bursting
At The Seams
