V5.5

[Intro] There’s somethin’ in the air tonight… Yeah, I see it in your eyes… Firelight… and fireflies… Got us lost between the lines… [Verse 1] I’m nothin’ like them city girls Never thought you’d wanna give me a twirl Tandem heartbeats, pulsing in the crowd You went and turned that summer up-side-down I heard your voice risin’ above the sea, So many people, didn’t think you’d hear, little ol’ me Lookin’ back, it was just like a dream Two lonesome souls, singin’ a harmony [Verse 2] I came in with the noise and the flashy lights Didn’t plan on stayin’, just passin’ by Then I saw you standin’ in a southern breeze Like a slow song driftin’ through the trees You smiled like you knew me back in time Like we grew up in the same sunrise And every step felt like it led to you Like the world went quiet when you came into view [Pre-Chorus] Firelight and Fireflies I'm getting so lost in your eyes I'm feelin' naked, no disguise We'll keep on dancin' through the nights... [Chorus] Like gravity pulled us right out of the crowd, Turned down the volume on everythin' loud. Now it's just echoes of footsteps and breaths, A beautiful bonfire we can't second-guess. Don't let the moments pass, just let the sunset fade, We're caught in the midnight that we just made. [Verse 3] Walkin’ slow just to stretch out time Talkin’ small just to hear your lines Every laugh hit deeper than before Didn’t wanna leave, didn’t need much more You caught me starin’, I played it cool You bumped my shoulder like “I see you” Right there somethin’ shifted inside Like we both crossed over that line [Verse 4] For a guy "talkin' small," your message was loud, Cut right through the noise of the festival crowd. A few days of music and a paper wristband, Felt like a lifetime when you reached for my hand. They tear down the riggin' when Monday rolls 'round, And you'll catch a flight back to your side of town. But out by the tents, where a lone banjo plays, I'm wishin' we had just a couple more days... [Sultry Banjo & Harmonica Duet] [Bridge] Just a few short days, a flash in the pan, But it felt like forever since it began. Will you look back when the snow starts to fall? I'll close my eyes and remember it all. Oh, the fire might fade, but the embers remain, We can always go back down memory lane... [Final Chorus] If I could hold the shutter and freeze the frame, I'd keep us right here, in this flickerin' flame. From the blur of the streetlights To the drift of the pines, We're readin' the space in between all these lines. Let the stars take their time, let the moon take its cue. There's nothin' to do but be right here with you. Where we're finally moving... slow. [Outro] There's somethin' in the air tonight...
