🎤 Lyrics: Owl City - Fireflies 🎵

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 would just stand and stare

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 sock hop beneath my bed
A disco ball is just hanging by a thread
(Thread, thread...)

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
(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
(Ha-ha)

To ten million fireflies
I'm weird 'cause I hate goodbyes
I got misty eyes as they said farewell
(Said farewell)
But I'll know where several are
If my dreams get real bizarre
'Cause I saved a few and I keep them in a jar
(Jar, jar, jar...)

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 (when I fall asleep)

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 (when I fall asleep)

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
Because my dreams are bursting at the seams

[nnova]

This song literally was my childhood and it played on the radio so much in like 2009

[iLxnnya]

*"We didn't know we were making memories, we were just having fun.*

*- Winnie The Pooh*

[SG-skkt]

Things that most of us did then:

- Plants vs Zombies
- Diary of A Wimpy kid
- Mario Kart
- DS games
- Minecraft
- Spongebob
- Those Scooby-Doo Movies (You know the ones)

[thepremiumcow]

This is the one song that needs to be carried on through every generation for eternity.

[fangwulfe]

Is it weird to say I find this song happy and depressing at the same time?

[wyatthernandez]

This song will never get old. Carry it on to the next generation

[TrashPandaVT]

I love how an entire generation collectively had this song in our childhoods

[XCRunner]

Any one in 2024 here?

Edit: 2k likes, seems like this song is still famous which is expected

[alvinrubia]

No matter how old this song gets, I'll always go back to listen. This is a masterpiece.

[Sean-Johnson]

My father always said...

“Life isn’t fun without a struggle in it, but some struggles lead to tragic endings.”

[KimLenox]

I will never understand why the song has not been recognized, this deserves to be viral!

[Flowful]

Dear reader, I don't know you and you don't know me. Probably we are not even living in the same country. We look different. We speak different languages. Maybe we are from entirely different generations. We are just complete strangers. But there is something that connects us. We both have great taste in music Thank you for being here. God bless you, whoever you are.

[Esther-deji]

Anyone still listening in 2021??this song never old..

[taterhater]

Is it just me or is this giving me fake flashbacks from my childhood that didnt happen

[MeepGirl]

No matter how old you get, this song will make a smile appear gently on your face.
It's just that good.

[ponyleaf]

When you were little and you didn’t understand any lyrics but not you realize how freaking whimsical this song is

[epicDiggs]

This song is both sad and invigorating at the same time. I think it's because it reminds me of the energy we used to have as kids that we can’t muster anymore. You feel it come rushing back with the chorus but it's just a memory and isn't really there – like a dream, as the song puts it.

[airplanes]

The amount of nostalgia I get from this song is immaculate

[TanTanMud]

my mum passed and i heard this song immediately after hearing. Thank you mummy. Fly high with a million fireflies...xxx

[gabbsis]

I remember my uncle coming to visit me at the hospital... I was there for 1 year straight. And he showed me this song and got me earphones. And i used to listen to this for the whole night, in hope that the next day, the test is going to be negative of infection and i can go home... I cried to it, laughted to it, sung it and now I just found it... Im in tears. I am out of the hospital for a really long time and my health is a lot better now. Now im listening and I could tell how much the lyrics were relatable. They still are.. Just in a diffrent way
