fireflies. (ringtone cover)

[Pre-Chorus]
You would not believe your eyes if ten million fireflies
Lit up the world as I fell asleep
'Cause they'd fill the open air and leave teardrops everywhere
You'd think me rude, but I would just stand and stare

[Chorus]
I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems

[Post-Chorus]
'Cause I'd get a thousand hugs from ten thousand lightning bugs
As they tried to teach me how to dance
A foxtrot above my head, a sock hop beneath my bed
A disco ball is just hanging by a thread, thread, thread

[Chorus]
I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems when I fall asleep

[Verse]
Leave my door open just a crack (Please take me away from here)
'Cause I feel like such an insomniac (Please take me away from here)
Why do I tire of counting sheep (Please take me away from here)
When I'm far too tired to fall asleep? —Sleep, —sleep, —sleep

[Pre-Chorus]
To ten million fireflies, I'm weird 'cause I hate goodbyes
I got misty eyes as they said farewell
But I'll know where several are if my dreams get real bizarre
'Cause I saved a few and I keep them in a jar

[Chorus]
I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems when I fall asleep
