Would'ya could'ya catch these fireflies? These thoughts that are buzzin' round in my mind And put'em in a jar just by my bed Turn the lights right off in my head
Well maybe baby your thoughts they fly too fast and I'ma try to do my best to catch'em And put'em in a jar just like you said Turn the lights right off in your head
Would'ya could'ya catch these little lies? The white ones I say to stay locked inside And put'em in a bottle right by my bed Swallow the key to my heart instead
Well maybe baby your lies they ain't so white but I'm thinkin' since they don't keep me up at night Then I'll put'em in a bottle just like you said Swallow the key to your heart instead
I'm runnin' out of time before you Start readin' my mind Baby I got a secret Maybe I'd like to keep it Oh I'm runnin' out of lines to keep you Close but not inside Baby I got a secret Maybe I'd like to keep it
Would'ya could'ya catch these starry signs? These milky drops shootin' through my mind And put'em in a jar just by my bed Wipe the wonder right outta my head
Well maybe baby your drops they fall to fast and I'ma try to do my best to catch'em And put'em in a jar just like you said Wipe the wonder right outta your head
Would'ya could'ya catch these little sighs? The shy ones I do to say I'm gettin' tired And put'em in a bottle right by my bed Drink up my lonely lips instead
Well maybe baby your sighs they ain't so shy but I kinda like the way you try to be polite So I'll put'em in a bottle just like you said Drink up your lonely lips instead
I'm runnin' out of time before you Start readin' my mind Baby I got a secret Maybe I'd like to keep it Oh I'm runnin' out of lines to keep you Close but not inside Baby I got a secret Maybe I'd like to keep it
Would'ya could'ya skip to new places I find? I'd pack a little bag leave the rest behind Spin the globe in a circle Head wherever we land See the cities Meet the mountains Stick our toes in the sand
We're runnin' out of time before we Start loosin' our minds Baby if this could be it Won't you whisper your secret Oh we're runnin' out of lines to keep us Safe but locked inside The world's made for dreamin' Lets go out and see it'
Lets go explore like fireflies Chase these thoughts buzzin' in our minds and Never bottle up whats left unsaid Open up the jars right by our beds
