Stevie Holland - Firefly lyrics

rate me

You'll only see her once a year

Because her schedule is tight

It's only when the summertime draws near

She'll she'd her beauty on the night

The noise she makes you will not hear

But with her phosphorescent light

She'll try to help your vision to be clear

And keep your spirits very bright

Oh firefly, when you spread your wings

You make little rings

That light up the evening sky

Oh firefly, when you spread your wings

You make nighttime sing

When you start to fly, you're never shy

I wish you'd never die

When autumn cuts in like a knife

Her wings will slowly start to fray

And then the earth will take her as it's wife

Into the ground she'll melt away

But the glowing, vibrant life you saw

That kept her busy yesterday

Is only resting till the ice will thaw

Then she'll be back again to play

Oh firefly, when you spread your wings

You make little rings

That light up the evening sky

Oh firefly, when you spread your wings

You make nighttime sing

When you start to fly, you're never shy

I know you'll never die
