Fireflies Owl City Lyrics

It’s one of the hottest songs out there now so everyone wants to know the Fireflies Owl City Lyrics so they can sing along to the song. And why wouldn’t they? It’s a pretty good song… I mean, it’s on just about every top 10 music chart out there right now.

Matter of fact, after reading it and hearing it, the song just seems that much better. I’m just glad I actually took the time to look up the Fireflies lyrics.

But below are the lyrics to the song Fireflies which is sung by Owl City:

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’d just stand and stare

[Chorus:]
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 sockhop beneath my bed
A disco ball is just hanging by a thread

[Repeat Chorus:]

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 ill know where several are
If my dreams get real bizarre
‘Cause I saved a few and I keep them in a jar

[Repeat Chorus:] (2x)

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 my dreams are bursting at the seams
