I woke up
On a wave that crashes
When will the tide return?
And if you leave
With only ashes
Can't rebuild what has been burned
And down the road
With all the seeds grown
And benefit of view
We throw away
The things we want most
Depending on our mood
I don't know where you are
I don't know where I'm going
But I can't be that far
From where your heart is flowing
Just like fireflies
Briefly held, meant to be let go
Somewhere in the night
The words you spoke will always
Light an echo in my mind
A last goodbye, one breath
Within our ever-shifting lives
Spare your cries, there will
Be no reply
I can't know where to start
If you don't let down your guard
A distance much too far
'Cause we are...
Just like fireflies
A mirror to the stars that
Drift out
Somewhere in the night
The words you spoke will always
Light an echo in my mind
A last goodbye, one breath
Within our ever-shifting lives
The vast divided skies we're
Meant to fly
