It started with a glownThe one that lit your face for menThen it ignited a spark insidenThat blew up for the whole world to seennI still remember the first timenUnderneath the light out our translucent moonnWhen we said the word forevernI feared forever would come too soonnnWe can talk all nightnBeneath the firefliesnForget the neon lightsnThey're just so far away from us tonightnnWe can sleep all nightnBeneath the firefliesnForget the city lightsnThey're just so far away from us tonightnn(It's only you and me out here)nnWe'll lay upon the grassnAnd I will give you the stars in my skynI'll never let this moment passnSo that you'll never see the tears in my eyennI still remember the first timenMaking love in the spring rainnI would hold you tight for eternitynWhile you're whispering my namennWe can talk all nightnBeneath the firefliesnForget the neon lightsnThey're just so far away from us tonightnnWe can sleep all nightnBeneath the firefliesnForget the city lightsnThey're just so far away from us tonightnnIt's only you and me out herenNo need for companynThe world can come to a stand stillnAnd still you're all I'd neednnWe can talk all nightnBeneath the firefliesnForget the neon lightsnThey're just so far away from us tonightnnWe can sleep all nightnBeneath the firefliesnForget the city lightsnThey're just so far away from us tonightnnThese fireflies light our way home
