My intent was to capture the magical dance across nature of the fireflies as they paint against the palette of a clear night sky dotted with the beauty of stars. [INTRO] Firefly....................................... Fire......Firefly.................. (Firefly.....) Fire..........Firefly..................... (Firefly) Firefly......... Dance of light electrifies. Through the innocent eyes of a child, the world is magic But as years pass, that same world feels cold and tragic [CHORUS] Firefly....................................... Fire......Firefly.................. (Firefly) Fire..........Firefly..................... (Firefly) Firefly......... Your beauty defies. [VERSE 1] Not yet even two She stares silently in awe Like stars Gods hand threw Cosmic dance their shapes draw [CHORUS] Firefly....................................... Fire......Firefly.................. (Firefly) Fire..........Firefly..................... (Firefly) Firefly......... She lets loose a sigh [BRIDGE] She lets loose a sigh (sigh....sigh) [VERSE 2] She peers into the night She peers into the night Constellation painted on meadow Glowing ballet of flight Symphony of Angels on show (show) [CHORUS] Firefly....................................... Fire......Firefly.................. (Firefly) Fire..........Firefly..................... (Firefly) Firefly......... Your magic mystifies [VERSE 3] Against canopy of universes embrace Her breath taken once more By stars in the heavens giving chase. To fireflies by the score (by the score) [CHORUS] Firefly....................................... Fire..........Firefly..................... (Firefly) Firefly......... Your dance of lullabies [VERSE 4] Galaxy as their backdrop Palette of infinite stars Weaving tapestries over hilltop, Waltz of ethereal blue afar. [Bridge] In this symphony of light where earth and sky converge The fireflies and stars in celestial harmony surge Their dance is a whisper timeless song in the night A divine connection in the pale of moonlight. [CHORUS] Firefly....................................... Fire..........Firefly..................... (Firefly) Firefly......... Seen from a childs eyes [VERSE 5] As dawn yawns and starts to awake The chorus of lights slowly fade, heavens dance leaves behind an ache embossed upon our hearts, forever laid. [OUTRO] In the heavenly dance of firefly and star A timeless riddle unmasked we learn from afar Child to parents eyes, with every pore we strive to find A life of magic tied to meaning, forever souls entwined [CHORUS] Firefly....................................... Fire..........Firefly..................... (Firefly) Firefly......... Bring a tear to eyes [Sweet angelic female vocal] Firefly.................. (Firefly) Firefly.................. (Firefly) [FADE TO END]
