Lyrics

[Rhett] You look like my mother Did when she was nineteen, Not afraid to die I started planning our future When you were just nineteen, I stole a firefly [Rachel] You got terrible vision Should have seen I was leaving When I first appeared I got bit by the footlights Got caught in the headlights In any place but here. [Both] Never say you'll never leave, Cause you'll never know til you try In a jar, fireflies Only last for one night Only last for one night [Rachel] Trains roll, like camels in slow mo Tryin' to find good love Well it couldn't find them [Rhett] Oh yeah, and I'm Gonna sleep on the train tracks It's gonna be peaceful And it's gonna rough [Both] Never say you'll never leave, Cause you'll never know til you try In a jar, fireflies Only last for one night Only last for one night [Both] I must have had reason for leaving [Rhett] Not one I could see [Both] I must have had reason for leaving [Rhett] Must have been me [Both] Must have been me [Rhett] You look like my mother Did when she was nineteen, Not afraid to die [Rachel] For the last time, I'm not your mother And I was only nineteen When I stole a firefly
