Fireflies Lyrics - Singles - Lotus Effect

I feel my life it slips away. 

Lay a flower on my tomb, a halo on my head. 

I know I will be missed, so many chances fade away. 

Forgive but don't forget. 

(acoustic version only) 

*They say that time it heals all pain. 

Then pour a little in my wounds to take this ache away. 

I know we all are lost, simply trying to find our way. 

Live each day like it's your last.* 

Chorus 

And I - I see the fireflies. 

And I - I can't stop wondering. 

Verse 2 

So many thoughts they cross my mind. 

I feel the folly of my youth, the folly of my pride. 

I know you have regrets, you and I were brothers. 

Only myself to blame. 

Chorus 

And I - I see the fireflies. 

And I - I can't stop running. 

And I - I'm down by friendly fire. 

And I - I can't stop wondering. 

Bridge 

I know that life goes on. 

Yet I cannot move on. 

Verse 3 

I watch you go from day to day. 

Trapped behind this two-way mirror, I long to touch your face. 

I know you love me still, (keep my picture by your bed.) 

You know I love you still. 

Chorus 

And I - I see the fireflies. 

And I - I can't stop running. 

And I - I'm down by friendly fire. 

And I - I can't stop wondering.
