Firefly

You, oh pretty thing A little spark that marks the waning of the spring Can you be my guide? And can we dance beneath the crystal evening sky? The way you shine against the dark As if the sunset split apart into a million twinkling lights Catch your glow between my hands Someday we'll both understand why I release you to the night Oh my little lantern Maybe we both were meant to fly You, we're miles apart And through it all you know I keep you in my heart Cold, the winter brings And if I don't let go I'm scared I'll clip your wings The way you shine against the dark As if the sunset split apart into a million twinkling lights Catch your glow between my hands Someday we'll both understand why I release you to the night Oh my little lantern Maybe we both were meant to fly The way you shine against the dark As if the sunset split apart into a million twinkling lights Catch your glow between my hands Someday we'll both understand why I release you to the night Oh my little lantern Maybe we both were meant to fly Oh my little lantern Maybe we both were meant to fly
