lyrics

FIREFLY

VERSE
I’M FLYING HIGH, I’M LOW ON GAS
I’M BLAZING DOWN THE OVERPASS AND I’M SATISFIED
MY MOOD IS UP, MY TOP IS DOWN
I’VE GOT NO TIME FOR THIS GIRL, SHE’S SO WOUND UP

I’VE BEEN AROUND THIS TOWN TOO LONG TO STOP AND THINK ABOUT HOW THINGS WENT REALLY WRONG
CAUSE WHAT I SAY AND WHAT YOU DO AND WHAT YOU SAY AND WHAT I DO ARE TWO DIFFERENT THINGS

CHORUS
LIKE A FIREFLY IN THE NIGHT
SHE WAS GONE, SHE WAS GONE
LEFT AS QUICK AS SHE CAME
AND SHE DRAGGED ME, DRAGGED ME DOWN THE….

VERSE
WE WERE RUNNING ROUND NO TIME TO REST
FROM TOWN TO TOWN SHE TOOK MY BEST AND I’M SATISFIED
WHEN THE MONEY STARTED RUNNING OUT SHE KICKED AND SCREAMED AND SAID THAT SHE WAS OUT, WITHOUT A DOUBT

YOU KNOW MY LIFE IS SHORT AND LOVE IS SWEET
I’VE GOT NO TIME FOR THIS MISERY, SHE SAID TO ME
WHEN I LIFTED UP MY COFFEE CUP I FOUND THAT SHE WAS SO WOUND UP WITH ALL HER CRAZY LIES

CHORUS
LIKE A FIREFLY IN THE NIGHT, SHE WAS GONE, SHE WAS GONE
LEFT AS QUICK AS SHE CAME, AND SHE DRAGGED ME, DRAGGED ME DOWN THE

VERSE
MY SPIRIT’S BROKE, MY POCKETS’ BARE
ANOTHER TOXIC LOVE AFFAIR
AND I’M NOT AMUSED
WHEN ALL IS SAID AND ALL IS DONE
I’M RACING TO THE SETTING SUN
AND SHE’S HAUNTING ME

CHORUS
LIKE A FIREFLY IN THE NIGHT, SHE WAS GONE, SHE WAS GONE
LEFT AS QUICK AS SHE CAME, AND SHE DRAGGED ME, DRAGGED ME DOWN

LIKE A FIREFLY IN THE NIGHT, SHE WAS GONE (SHE WAS GONE), SHE WAS GONE (SHE WAS GONE)
LEFT AS QUICK AS SHE CAME, AND SHE DRAGGED ME, DRAGGED ME DOWN THE DRAIN
