If ten million fireflies lit up the world as I fell asleep. 'Cause they'd 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. I'd get a thousand hugs from ten thousand lightning bugs as they tried to teach me how to dance. A foxtrot above my head, a sock hop beneath my bed. A disco ball is just hanging by 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 good-byes. I got misty eyed as they said farewell. But I'll know where several are if my dreams get real bizarre cause I saved a few and I 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.
