Yesterday we were fireflies
Who thought we could be shooting stars
Shining so bright into the night
We could go so far

I can't count the breaths that I take
But you sure took my breath away
No one could have made me awake
Drifting away

Never saw that we flew with broken wings
Never thought that we were fragile at all
How could you say this ain't reality?
How could you say you forgot it all?

Put your hands together!
We are fireflies

How could you say this ain't reality?
How could you say this ain't reality?

No one thinks they are made of glass
Until they are broken apart
I thought we're more than fireflies
Reaching for the stars

I can't count the breaths that I take
But you sure took my breath away
No one could have made me awake
Drifting away

Never saw that we flew with broken wings
Never thought that we were fragile at all
How could you say this ain't reality?
How could you say you forgot it all?

Put your hands together!
We are fireflies

How could you say this ain't reality?
How could you say this ain't reality?
