Firefly in the Night

Just when I needed a friend
I heard a call from where you are
Guiding fools like children
Soaring on to the promised star
But it was no more than a firefly in the night
But it was no more than a firefly in the night
Blinding me still
I heard a far-off voice
And I was easily led
Wading deep through waters
Where these hopes could fill my head
But it was no more than a firefly in the night
But it was no more than a firefly in the night
Blinding me still
And though struck dumb for now
Your heart is only numb
But when the numbness there is done
You'll find it broken
Locked in this vanishing space
I never thought of escape
Searching on for answers
Then I thought I saw your face
But it was no more than a firefly in the night
But it was no more than a firefly in the night
Blinding me still
Lost in flight
