Rachel Yamagata - Fierfiles
refrain:
You looked like my mother
Did when she was nineteen
And not afraid to die
I started planning our future
But you were just nineteen
And still a firefly
You got terrible vision
Should have seen I was leaving
When I first appeared
I got bit by the footlights
I got caught in a headlights
Headed any place but here
refrain2:
Never say you'll never leave
'Cause you never know til you try
In a jar fireflies only last for one night
Only last for one night
Trains roll
Like gamblers in slow mo
Trying to find good luck
When they couldn't find love
Oh yeah and I
I'm gonna sleep on the train tracks
It's gonna be peaceful
And then it's gonna get rough
refrain2
I must have had a reason for leaving
Not one I could see
I must have had a a reason for leaving
It must have been me, it must have been me
refrain
For the last time
I'm not your mother
And I was only nineteen
And still a firefly
