Fireflies

Before you met me, I was a fairy princess
I caught frogs and called them prince and made myself a ueen
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
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
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
And I slept in castles and fell in love because I was taught to dream
