Firefly
A single perfect dew drop forms The first pearl of the morning And as the air surrounding warms And darkness ebbs away Another fragile day She's there observing silently A witness to creation She understands the irony This is her final scene A picture in a dream The way it's always been
But it comes as a cost With this sense that something permanent is lost That a line has been crossed An argument to which there's no riposte That's a singularity It's your own mortality It's the punishment and prize It's the lights before your eyes Come alive, oh firefly of mine
Tomorrow is un-reachable Tomorrow is invention Tomorrow is un-teachable It's where the answers hide It's where we don't arrive Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com How precious is the time we've left How priceless every moment We must abandon hopeless quests This business of forgiveness This notion of atonement
But it comes as a cost With this sense that something permanent is lost That a line has been crossed An argument to which there's no riposte That's a singularity It's your own mortality It's the punishment and prize It's the lights before your eyes Come alive, oh firefly of mine
But it comes as a cost With this sense that something permanent is lost That a line has been crossed An argument to which there's no riposte That's a singularity It's your own mortality It's the punishment and prize It's the lights before your eyes
