These Friendly Fireflies

These friendly fireflies
They light the way for you
They keep you safe at night
And when they’re gone
The darkness wraps around
And everything doesn’t look quite right
I will be here when you are gone
Even if you don’t see me
I will be somewhere you won’t
Even look for me
All this time I tried to please
And no one seemed to care
Anyone but you and anywhere but there
These friendly fireflies
They light the way for you
They keep you safe at night
And when they’re all gone
Darkness wraps around you scary
Just keep your hand inside of mine
No one can ever beat you
No one can ever bring you down
And if they try to hurt you
Just send them around to my town
No one ever said it was
A good idea to go
Out there on your own
Out there without these here fireflies
No one ever said it was
A good idea to go
Out there on your own
Out there without these here fireflies
These friendly fireflies
They keep you safe at night
They keep you safe at night
These friendly fireflies
They light the path for you
They don’t ask for nothing in return
