firefly I let out of the jar
can you see my balloons from Mars
and do know how far you are
do you know how far you are
from me
When a whistle can't be heard
Nor the singing of a bird
do you know it's getting hard
do you know it's getting hard
for me
for me to be me
(chorus) And when the sun opens up
opens up her weary eye
I want to learn how to fly
fly away up in the sky
come to you come to me
when I am blind help me see
come to you come to me
little boy dreams aren't what they are
when shattered by shooting stars
and do know how far you are
do you know how far you are
from me
the sun never sets when you grow up
and you drink more than a cup
do you know it's getting hard
do you know it's getting hard
for me
for me to be me
(chorus)
(instrumental)
river falls in milky ways
the laughter is just a haze
do you know how far you are
when you feel you spinning round
nothing seems to make a sound
do you know it's getting hard
for me
for me to be me
