[00:21.590]You would not believe your eyes
[00:24.120]If ten million fireflies
[00:27.200]Lit up the world as I fell asleep
[00:29.939]
[00:32.450]Cause they fill the open air
[00:34.910]And leave teardrops everywhere
[00:37.150]You'd think me rude but I would just stand and stare
[00:41.710]
[00:43.300]I'd like to make myself believe
[00:47.150]That planet earth turns slowly
[00:53.200]It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
[00:56.600]Awake when I'm asleep
[00:59.070]Cause everything is never as it seems
[01:03.500]
[01:05.589]Cause I'd get a thousand hugs
[01:07.210]From ten thousand lightning bugs
[01:09.950]As they tried to teach me how to dance
[01:13.270]
[01:15.500]A foxtrot above my head
[01:17.930]A sockhop beneath my bed
[01:20.400]A disco ball is just hanging by a thread
[01:23.770]
[01:26.250]I'd like to make myself believe
[01:30.110]That planet earth turns slowly
[01:36.250]It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
[01:39.000]Awake when I'm asleep
[01:41.470]Cause everything is never as it seems
[01:46.059]When I fall asleep
[01:48.210]
[01:49.990]Leave my door open just a crack
[01:53.400]Please take me away from here
[01:55.480]Cause I feel like such an insomniac
[01:58.480]Please take me away from here
[02:00.830]Why do I tire of counting sheep
[02:03.820]Please take me away from here
[02:06.380]When I'm far too tired to fall asleep
[02:09.359]
[02:11.819]To ten million fireflies
[02:14.479]I'm weird cause I hate goodbyes
[02:17.330]I got misty eyes as they said farewell
[02:22.080]But I'll know where several are
[02:25.120]If my dreams get real bizarre
[02:27.430]Cause I saved a few and I keep them in a jar
[02:31.800]
[02:33.510]I'd lke To make myself believe
[02:38.090]That Planet earth turns slowly
[02:43.349]It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
[02:46.200]Awake when I'm asleep
[02:48.719]Cause everything is never as it seems
[02:53.600]When I fall asleep
[02:54.890]I'd like to make myself believe
[02:58.680]That planet earth turns slowly
[03:04.710]It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
[03:07.620]Awake when I'm asleep
[03:10.050]Cause everything is never as it seems
[03:14.799]When I fall asleep
[03:16.440]I'd like to make myself believe
[03:20.329]That planet earth turns slowly
[03:26.329]It's hard to say I'd rather stay
[03:29.029]Awake when I'm asleep
[03:31.730]Because my dreams are bursting at the seams
