A Million Fireflies

Did you feel the nurse at night?
She stroked and held your hand.
Did you feel the doctors might?
He cried, you understand?
That everything ain't always right.
Aw hell, it never is.
You are gonna die tonight
just like your parents did.

Remember the morning breeze on your face when you're crying.
Tell me you don't want to leave, though you're so worn and tattered on this night.

Think about the times we shared.
The moons, they shone so bright.
Think about the love we share.
Our love, it overrides.

Remember the morning dew that glistens in your bright eyes.
It hurts me loving you. It burns a million fireflies.
If you only knew, I doubt that you'd be dying.
I'm such a selfish fool to think that you're not trying to stay.

Is it over? Do you know that I'm right here?
I'm scared tonight that you won't make it. You're loosing this fight.
You're burning out before me, you're a million fireflies.
You're leaving now but I can't say goodbye.

Remember the morning breeze on your face when you're crying.
Tell me you don't want to leave, though you're so worn and tattered on this night.
Remember the morning dew that glistens in your bright eyes.
It hurts me loving you. It burns a million fireflies.
It hurts me loving you. It burns a million fireflies.
It hurts me loving you. It burns a million fireflies.
It hurts me loving you. It burns a million fireflies.
