Lyrics
Verse 1:
It's the way you smile, consuming me
With those perfect, pearly whites.
Breaking down my pride with youthful desire,
Then you leave me,
Amused at my yearning,
You're a firefly passion,
Igniting a rare, brilliant spark,
Then you vanish, folklore in the night.
Pre-Chorus:
I lured you in the early hour,
Betrayed myself, letting your touch
Corrupt me,
Your calculated words
Meant to subtract...
And I break apart,
Knowing by dawn’s light,
I’ll be at the bottom of an empty jar,
Where you escaped,
And trapped me
With the woody notes
Of your aftershave.
Chorus:
By luck or neglect,
I always lose my lids,
Caught in your ephemeral glow,
In this dance we know so well,
You come and go,
Leaving me hollow,
Longing for your return,
In the night’s soft echo.
Verse 2:
You disarm my pride,
With a youthful fire,
Leaving me abandoned,
Feeding on my need.
A firefly passion,
Bright spark, then gone,
A legendary tale,
Fleeting and elusive.
Pre-Chorus:
I lured you in the early hour,
Betrayed myself, letting your touch
Corrupt me,
Your calculated words
Meant to subtract...
And I break apart,
Knowing by dawn’s light,
I’ll be at the bottom of an empty jar,
Where you escaped,
And trapped me
With the woody notes
Of your aftershave.
Chorus:
By luck or neglect,
I always lose my lids,
Caught in your ephemeral glow,
In this dance we know so well,
You come and go,
Leaving me hollow,
Longing for your return,
In the night’s soft echo.
Bridge:
Lost in the fragrance,
A prisoner of your charm,
My heart races,
As you slip through my arms.
A fleeting moment,
A firefly's light,
Gone with the morning,
Into the night.
Chorus:
By luck or neglect,
I always lose my lids,
Caught in your ephemeral glow,
In this dance we know so well,
You come and go,
Leaving me hollow,
Longing for your return,
In the night’s soft echo.
Outro:
With every dawn,
I gather the pieces,
Left behind,
In your fleeting presence.
A firefly love,
Bright but rare,
Leaving me yearning,
For another chance to stare.
