Stevie Holland – Firefly lyrics
You'll only see her once a year
Because her schedule is tight
It's only when the summertime draws near
She'll she'd her beauty on the night

The noise she makes you will not hear
But with her phosphorescent light
She'll try to help your vision to be clear
And keep your spirits very bright

Oh firefly, when you spread your wings
You make little rings
That light up the evening sky
Oh firefly, when you spread your wings
You make nighttime sing
When you start to fly, you're never shy
I wish you'd never die

When autumn cuts in like a knife
Her wings will slowly start to fray
And then the earth will take her as it's wife
Into the ground she'll melt away

But the glowing, vibrant life you saw
That kept her busy yesterday
Is only resting till the ice will thaw
Then she'll be back again to play

Oh firefly, when you spread your wings
You make little rings
That light up the evening sky
Oh firefly, when you spread your wings
You make nighttime sing
When you start to fly, you're never shy
I know you'll never die
