A trail of light from a firefly Is a song that's playing Just a song that's playing We had a lot of dreams that went by Just a song that we were singing Just a song that we were singing When I said I wasn't leaving That's when I knew that I was leaving Night after night Night after night I had a lot of time to make it worse I know you tried to get near Was a song I just couldn't hear See you in a stranger's eyes And there's so much I wish I could say Just a song I'll sing anyway When I said I wouldn't need it That's when I knew that I would need it Night after night Night after night
