“Darkness Between The Fireflies”

“Darkness Between The Fireflies”

Music byMason Jennings

I woke up before you in the total darkness

Early morning

I could hear the wind in the trees

I was looking for the light to bring you out

From the shadows

Redefine you now for only me

And honey i’m sure

That you’ve been in love before

Plenty of men have held high places in your eyes

And jealousy has got no use for me

The past is beautiful

Like the darkness between the fireflies

I was driving faster through the Appalachians

I could see the world go out below me in the sun

You should know by now

That someone’s always been there

Long before you

You’re never going to be the only one

And honey i’m sure

That you’ve been in love before

Plenty of men have held high places in your eyes

But jealousy has got no use for me

The past is beautiful

Like the darkness between the fireflies

Beautiful like the darkness between the fireflies
