Lyrics
Fireflies
Landed in Nashville waited in the airport bar
He picked her up in the Cheekster’s car
Out on the porch
A warm stranger’s home
Lanterns and Remy
An electrical storm
Acoustic guitars melodic voices
Engaged in laughter singing life’s choices
Electric fan, awakened by a kiss
Left their to ignite and wish
From the Land of the Dragons to the city of sultry skies
From the Lake of the Woods to the city of fireflies
Next night driving the craving sparks
A hand on leg and
A fire in the heart
Pull in to lodge room 206 and
Now they are 45 miles south of Memphis
From the Land of the Dragons to the city of sultry skies
From the Lake of the Woods to the city of fireflies
2 scotches please
Here you go honey child
Night cap in pocket
Connection dialled
Their kind eyes
Their gentle souls
Their loving smiles
Stirs the coals and his
Lions mane and their
Hands clenched tight
Hearts to fall on this hot
On this hot Southern night
Hey ey ey ey yah
Subtle glance full embrace
Fire dance to that spiritual place
From the Land of the Dragons to the city of sultry skies
From the Lake of the Woods to the city of fireflies
From the Land of the Dragons to the city of sultry skies
They’re the fire, fireflies
They’re the fire, fireflies
