Miller, Rhett - Fireflies Lyrics
You... looked just like my mother
Did when she was 19
Not afraid to die
I... started planning our future
You were just 19
You got... terrible vision
You shoulda seen I was leavin'
When I first appeared
I... got bit by the footlights
I got caught in the headlights
in any place but here
Never say
You'll never leave
In a jar
fireflies
Only last for one night
Only last for one night
Trains roll... like gamblers in slow mo
Tryin' to find good luck
When they couldn't find love
Oh yeah, and I'm... gonna sleep on the train tracks
It's gonna be a peaceful night
Then it's gonna get rough
Never say
You'll never leave
Cuz you'll never know til you try
In a jar
fireflies
Only last for one night
Only last for one night
I must have had a reason for leavin'
- Not one I could see
I must have had a reason for leavin'
- Must have been me
- Must have been me...
You... looked just like my mother
Did when she was 19
Not afraid to die
For the last time... I'm not your mother
And I was only 19
I'm still a firefly

If I could only listen to one song today, then I choose this song. Yup. Over and over and over again. What a tune!
did any one else notice how many references they made to his other songs?
"Nineteen," "Terrible Vision"... what else?
Because it's silence? I don't get it. You don't like the song... i.e. you only like the silent bit?
is she transexual or somethin ?
@sarafina65 Nice dickery. Did you win the troll contest?
Rachael Yamagata has such a gorgeous voice.
I have great hopes for both of these young singers :)
Simple awesome!
Love it!
I dig this song big time and Miss Yamagata is the perfect compliment to Rhett's voice!
Best song on The Believer far and away. Wish you would do more stuff with Rachel Yamagata too!
