Fireflies

A cool summer night was spent watching the fireflies
Dance in the light of the moon
Who would've guessed that what we thought was real
Was so fragile and ended so soon?

I miss what we had together
Promise each other forever

Was it a long time ago?
I don't even know
I barely recognize the places that we used to go
I've lost track of time
It seems like just yesterday
But you're slipping away
You're slipping away

And I've reminisced and recollected all the thoughts of you
And placed them in a box under my bed
But nothing I can do and nothing anyone can say
Can erase the memories in my head

You're a vision that won't go away
Why won't you stay? Why won't you stay?

Was it a long time ago?
I don't even know
I don't recognize the places that we used to go
I've lost track of time
It seems like just yesterday
But you're slipping away
You're slipping away

Was it a long time ago?
I don't even know
I can't recognize the places that we used to go
I've lost track of time
It seems like just yesterday
But you're slipping away
You're slipping away
You're slipping away

A cool summer night was spent watching the fireflies
Dance in the light of the moon
