[You would not believe your eyes
If ten million fireflies
Lit up the world as I fell asleep

'Cause they'd fill the open air
And leave teardrops everywhere
You'd think me rude
But I would just stand and stare]

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems

{'Cause I'd get a thousand hugs
From ten thousand lightning bugs
As they tried to teach me how to dance

A foxtrot above my head
A sock hop beneath my bed
A disco ball is just hanging by a thread}

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems
When I fall asleep

{Leave my door open just a crack}
[Please take me away from here]
{'Cause I feel like such an insomniac
[Please take me away from here]
{Why do I tire of counting sheep}
[Please take me away from here]
{When I'm far too tired to fall asleep}

{To ten million fireflies
I'm weird 'cause I hate goodbyes
I got misty eyes as they said farewell}

[But I'll know where several are
If my dreams get real bizarre
'Cause I saved a few and I keep them in a jar]

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems
