You would not believe your eyes If ten million fireflies Lit up the world as I fell asleep Cuz they'd fill the open air And leave tear-drops everywhere You'd think me rude but I'd just stand and stare Am I'd like to make myself believe That planet earth turns slowly Its hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep Cuz everything is never as it seems 'Cause I'd get a thousand hugs From ten thousand lightning bugs As they tried to teach me how to dance A foxtrot above my head A sock hop beneath my bed A disco ball is just hanging by a thread Am I'd like to make myself believe That planet earth turns slowly Its hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep Cuz everything is never as it seems Leave my door open just a crack (Please take me away from here) 'Cause I feel like such an insomniac (Please take me away from here) Why do I tire of counting sheep (Please take me away from here) When I'm far too tired to fall asleep To ten million fireflies I'm weird 'cause I hate goodbyes I got misty eyes as they said farewell But I'll know where several are If my dreams get real bizarre 'Cause I saved a few and I keep them in a jar I'd like to make myself believe That planet earth turns slowly Its hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep Cuz everything is never as it seems
