[Verse 1] The grass holds its breath tonight Each reed bends under black A flute slips through the meadow And calls the small lights back Tiny sparks in the clover Blinking like held-in tears They drift where the wind is softer And vanish into ears [Pre-Chorus] The dark is deep and velvet But it never stays the same A shimmer moves through the stillness A thousand little names [Chorus] Fireflies, fireflies Luminous heart Hold the night open When the fields fall apart Fireflies, fireflies Luminous heart You keep on glowing You keep on glowing [Verse 2] The orchestra is grieving In layers of green and gold Cellos lie down like shadows And violins grow cold But the flute keeps telling What the meadow cannot say About every tiny ember That refuses to fade [Pre-Chorus] The sky leans close to listen The trees lean in to hear A trail of gold is rising And the sorrow disappears [Chorus] Fireflies, fireflies Luminous heart Hold the night open When the fields fall apart Fireflies, fireflies Luminous heart You keep on glowing You keep on glowing [Bridge] Even the deepest silence Can learn to flicker bright Even the loneliest meadow Can hold a thousand lights So fly through the darkened grasses Make a circle, make a start The flute will keep your story Fireflies, the luminous heart [Chorus] Fireflies, fireflies Luminous heart Hold the night open When the fields fall apart Fireflies, fireflies Luminous heart You keep on glowing You keep on glowing
