Matt Goss - Firefly lyrics

rate me

lowly uncovered, from a shallow grave of amber leaves

Wind blows revealing a frozen tear upon my face

Black crows are guarding, a grave up to now that's had no name,

It's almost like they knew this could never be my resting place

My heart starts to beat in time again, broken bones do mend

Chorus

Cause I see your life, through bloodshot eyes

The smile you see, not the pain it hides

Trust the fool, he'll never shine like a firefly

I'm healing from last results, compromise in summersaults

I'm moving on, I'm gonna shine like a firefly

Sunlight, warm me and penetrate these broken bones

Windows are frozen they lock me out of a life I know

And my eyes are bleeding, cause I learn to see in the blackest night

Cause once a king always a king

Chorus

Cause I see your life, through bloodshot eyes

The smile you see, not the pain it hides

Trust the fool, he'll never shine like a firefly

I'm healing from last results, compromise in summersaults

I'm moving on, I'm gonna shine like a firefly

My heart is going be in time again, broken bones do mend

Chorus

Cause I see your life, through bloodshot eyes

The smile you see, not the pain it hides

Trust the fool, he'll never shine like a firefly

I'm healing from last results, compromise in summersaults

I'm moving on, I'm gonna shine like a firefly

Never shine like a firefly
