Artist: Fleetwood Mac Album: Live (1980) Title: Fireflies
Lyrics FirefliesTo be the last to leave
The last to be gone
Stolen from the ones
Who held onto him
To be the last in line
The ones that live on
Silhouette of a dream
Treasured by the ones
Who hung onto him
Almost a breakdown
Of our love affair
The stiletto cuts quick
Like a whip through the air
Long distance winners
Will we survive the flight
Not one of us runs
From the firelight
And I would love to believe
I believe what you say
In the drama of the moment
Oh there is no easy way
No one ever leaves
Everyone stays close 'til the fire fades
I would love to believe
I believe what you say
In the drama of the moment
Oh there is no easy way
No one ever leaves
Everyone stays close 'til the fire fades
To be the last to leave
What caused the fearsome
Divorce in the night
There was no competition
To survive, do it right
You believe in the five
To survive the distance
Everyone fights
Everyone fights
And the fireflies
What happened to my feelings
We are dreamers in the night
Some call it my nightmare
My five fireflies
Like a sailing ship
Not one of us runs
Oh - why
Of our love affair
Like a whip through the air
I would love to believe
To believe what you say |
