Fireflies

Before you met me I was a fairy princess

I caught frogs and called them prince

And made myself a queen

Before you knew me I traveled around the world

I slept in castles and fell in love

Because I was taught to dream

I found mayonnaise bottles and poked holes on top

To capture tinkerbell

They were just fireflies to the untrained eye

But I could always tell

I believe in fairytales and dreamers dreams like bed sheet sails

And I believe in peter pan and miracles

And anything I can to get by

And fireflies

Before I grew up I saw you on a cloud

I could bless myself in your name and pat you on your wings

Before I grew up I heard you whisper so loud

Life is hard and so is love child believe in all these things

I found mayonnaise bottles and poked holes on top

To capture tinkerbell

And they were just fireflies to the untrained eye

But I could always tell

I believe in fairytales and dreamers dreams like bed sheet sails

And I believe in peter pan and miracles

And anything I can to get by

And fireflies

Fireflies

Before you met me I was a fairy princess

I caught frogs and called them prince

And made myself a queen

Before you knew me I traveled around the world

I slept in castles and fell in love

Because I was taught to dream
