fireflies lenno remix

Owl City

You would not believe your eyes
If ten-million fireflies
Lit up the world
As I fell asleep

Cause they fill the open air
And leave teardrops everywhere
You d think me rude
But I would just stand and stare

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

Cause I d get a thousand hugs
From ten-thousand lightning bugs
As they try 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

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...

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

To ten-million fireflies
I m weird cause I hate goodbyes
I got misty eyes
As they said farewell
(Farewell)
But I ll know where several are
If my dreams get real bizarre
Cause I d save a few
And I d keep them in a jar

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)

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)

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
Because my dreams are bursting at the seems
