100,000 Fireflies |
|
I have a mandolin |
|
I play it all night long |
|
It makes we want to kill myself |
|
I also have a dobro |
|
made in some mountain range |
|
Seems like a mountain range in love |
|
But when I turn up the tone |
|
on my electric guitar |
|
I'm afraid of the dark |
|
without you close to me |
|
I went out in the forest and caught |
|
100,000 fireflies |
|
As they ricochet round my room |
|
they remind me of your starry eyes |
|
Someone else might not |
|
have made this so sad |
|
But this is the worst night |
|
I've ever had |
|
Cause I'm afraid of the dark |
|
without you close to me |
|
You won't be happy with me |
|
give me one more chance |
|
you won't be happy anyway |
|
Why do we still live here |
|
in this repulsive town |
|
When all our friends are in new york |
|
Why do we keep shreiking |
|
when we mean soft things |
