It started back when we were wild and free With nothing to lose, the world was you and me Our flamed burned bright in those starry skies We were shooting stars, like fireflies ♪ We carved our names and we made a pact We used to fool around in the fields out back We fell in love on a summer breeze On a bed of petals 'neath that apple tree It's the story of us the way it used to be Those honeysuckle days seem so far away to me Now you name once carved in hearts up on a tree Is deep inside of me Like Fireflies Out in the night So high in the sky Burning so bright We were Fireflies Up, up and away Where we'll always stay Ablaze Like Fireflies ♪ Like Fireflies ♪ I won't forget the feeling of a first kiss A trembling heart and a moonlit dance And the look of the world through the eyes of a child It was an endless ride, the call of the wild ♪ We were Fireflies Out in the night So high in the sky Burning so bright We were Fireflies Up, up and away Where we'll always stay Ablaze Like Fireflies ♪ We were Fireflies ♪ Like Fireflies
