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
