Fireflies

He seems so familiar
He’s a homeless child
A wandering soul
In the dark
A precious find
And my hands
They reach out for you
We’ve had only one verse
It fell through
And am I so useless to you?
I am only one verse
Silvery voices up in the sky
And tongues of dragons
Useless cries
Where are they taking you?
They’re not beasts, they’re fireflies
And my hands
They reach out for you
We’ve had only one verse
It fell through
And am I so useless to you?
I am only one verse
Darling, stay
Darling, stay
And keep me with you
If it all wouldn’t matter
Then why would I try
To reach out for you?
I reach out for you
And my hands
They reach out for you
We’ve had only one verse
It fell through
And am I so useless to you?
I am only one verse
And my hands
And my hands
And my hands
And my hands
