Fireflies Lyrics

The light came to you
From a borrowed sky
You tried to keep me
Like a firefly
But I'm too quick for you
And you won't catch me alive
If heaven waits for you
Then salvation must be mine

I'm waiting here
I'm waiting here

The summer runs cold
And the daylight dies
And autumn shines through
Filled with fireflies
But I'm too bright for you
And the earth ran out of time
If heaven comes for you
Then salvation must be mine

I'm waiting here
I'm waiting here
I'm waiting here
I'm waiting here

It doesn't happen all the time
Am I confusing you with someone else?
I'm waiting here
I sit and think and wonder why
And try to sleep and dream you to myself
But where were you when I was underground?
Where were you when I was underground?
Where were you when I was underground?
Where were you when I was underground?
