John Grant - Fireflies lyrics
[John Grant - Fireflies lyrics]
On a summer night, 1975
Maybe earlier, now I don't remember
She catches fireflies at the ice cream social
And oh, oh oh, oh oh
We watch them take flight
He is coming now with the rake on fire
He destroys the nest of the wasps up high
We are standing there with the
Fire in our eyes and oh, oh oh, oh oh
We don't know what we're seeing
In the cemetery, back beyond our house
There's a grave with pictures, one of him
One of her
I can smell the flowers, they died long ago
And oh, oh oh, oh oh how I long for you
Maybe earlier, now I don't remember
She catches fireflies at the ice cream social
And oh, oh oh, oh oh
We watch them take flight
He is coming now with the rake on fire
He destroys the nest of the wasps up high
We are standing there with the
Fire in our eyes and oh, oh oh, oh oh
We don't know what we're seeing
In the cemetery, back beyond our house
There's a grave with pictures, one of him
One of her
I can smell the flowers, they died long ago
And oh, oh oh, oh oh how I long for you
