Fireflies

Written by stevie nicks.





To be the last to leave

The last to be gone

Stolen from the ones

Who held onto it

To be the last in line

Oh the ones that live on

Silhouette of a dream

Treasured by the ones

Who hung on to it



Almost a breakdown

Of our love affair

The stiletto cuts quick

Like a whip through the air

Long distance winners

Will we survive the flight

Not one of us runs

From the firelight



I would love to believe

I believe what you say

In the drama of the moment

Oh no there is no easy way

No one ever leaves

Everyone stays close 'till the fire fades



I would love to believe

I believe what you say

In the drama of the moment

For us there is no easy way

No one ever leaves

Everyone stays close 'till the fire fades



To be the last to leave

What caused the fearsome

Divorce in the night

There was no competition

Well to survive do it right

And you believe in the five

To survive the distance

Everyone fights

Everyone fights

And the fire flies



What happened to my feelings

There were angry words in the night

Some call it my nightmare

My five fireflies

Oh like a sailing ship

But not one of us runs



It's our love affair

It cuts like a whip through the air

And i would love to believe

To believe what you say
