Jan Gillies - Fireflies
Fireflies Jan Gillies/Pablo Peregrina
1. If you want to try catching fireflies
It’s important to be young at heart
With eyes open wide, watching as they fly
First you have to see where they are
While their lights of love flash below, above
They’re calling to each tiny soul
As their silent song sings of passion strong
They hover like a burning coal

2. But if they’re put in jars, then they can’t go far
Though their messages still fill our dreams
Flashing in our heads, as we lie in bed
Illuminating all we see
But they need to fly, or love is denied
Their lights are meant for better things
So we set them free, like they’re meant to be
Their message is, love needs wings!

(repeat 1st verse)
