You step outside and put a match to your cigarette.
Try as you may, you remember things you've tried to forget.
And the fireflies that encircle your heart
Blink suddenly, or they stay or depart
This time, this time
Before you even say your mind
I'm here, tonight
Yeah, I'm fading like a photograph
In the dusty shades of you
Tonight it seems it's eating you, alive.
It takes everything just to keep yourself all right.
And the fireflies that encircle your heart
Blink suddenly, or they stay or depart
Cause this time, this time
Before you even say your mind
Will you be mine
Yeah, I'm fading like a photograph
In the dusty shades
Cause this time, this time.
Before you even say the word.
I'm here, tonight
And I'm fading like a photograph
Cause this time, this time.
Before you even say the word.
Will you be mine
In the silence my heart occupies
I feel the light of you
