Fireflies Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Rolled a blanket down by the water

It's just you and me tonight

I can't fight us getting sleepy

The whole world is going quiet

Even lights fading away

Gentle breeze is blowing past

Making the grass slowly dance

Wish this night wouldn't go so fast



[Chorus]

Watching fireflies in west Texas

Sittin' under the Cypress tree

See the moon rise over the river

No place I'd rather be



[Verse 2]

Can't stop life from racing by

There's magic in the air tonight

I remember every moment

For the rest of my life



[Chorus]

Watching fireflies in west Texas

Sittin' under the Cypress tree

See the moon rise over the river

No place I'd rather be



[Bridge]

And I might see a shooting star

But I won't wish on them anymore

And just you saying that you love me

Is all I can ask for



[Chorus]

Watching fireflies in west Texas

Sittin' under the Cypress trees

See the moon rise over the river

No place I'd rather be



You and me and the fireflies

Flying under the Cypress trees

See the sun rise over the river

No place I'd rather be



See the sun rise over the river

No place I'd rather be
