I feel my life it slips away.
Lay a flower on my tomb, a halo on my head.
I know I will be missed, so many chances fade away.
Forgive but don't forget.

(acoustic version only)
*They say that time it heals all pain.
Then pour a little in my wounds to take this ache away.
I know we all are lost, simply trying to find our way.
Live each day like it's your last.*

Chorus
And I - I see the fireflies.
And I - I can't stop wondering.

Verse 2
So many thoughts they cross my mind.
I feel the folly of my youth, the folly of my pride.
I know you have regrets, you and I were brothers.
Only myself to blame.

Chorus
And I - I see the fireflies.
And I - I can't stop running.
And I - I'm down by friendly fire.
And I - I can't stop wondering.

Bridge
I know that life goes on.
Yet I cannot move on.

Verse 3
I watch you go from day to day.
Trapped behind this two-way mirror, I long to touch your face.
I know you love me still, (keep my picture by your bed.)
You know I love you still.

Chorus
And I - I see the fireflies.
And I - I can't stop running.
And I - I'm down by friendly fire.
And I - I can't stop wondering.
