Firefly

There, in the silence of the night
I see you shine
Drifting down to me, drift down to me
Is this is how it's supposed to be?
Will you stay, will you go?
Again, this time how far?
Then you take, and you're gone
No longer need to wait here anymore
Fly, far away
I won't regret at all
Not asking you to stay
And I can't make you understand
As I close my empty hand
And as I stand here
Watching stars go shooting by
A thought comes to me, it comes to me
This is how it's supposed to be
Fly, far away
I won't regret at all
Not asking you to stay
And I can't make you understand
As I close my empty hand
And as night turns to day
Alone now I walk away
And as time changes
Your light fades into the gray
Will you stay, will you go?
Again, this time how far?
Then you take and you're gone
Now longer need to wait here anymore
Fly, far away
I won't regret at all
Not asking you to stay
And I can't make you understand
As I close these empty hands
Such a tiny flame
Searching for the flame
Waiting here so long
Waiting here so long
Would I see the light?
Could I see the light again?
