I'm burning just the same
   Yeah, just the same as you
   Look into the flame to find that I'm burning too
  
   The story unfolds
   Without any words
   You're burning over
   Fading under
   Where you're goin'
   I don't know
  
   Burn like a firefly
   Fading into the night
   Burn like a firefly
   Something that's in my eye
   Burn like a firefly
   Dyin' to save your life
  
   I'm fading just the same
   Yeah, just the same as you
   (I'm fading just the same as you)
   Washing you away
   With words that you say
  
   You're burning over
   Fading under
   Where you're goin'
   I don't know
  
   Burn like a firefly
   Fading into the night
   Burn like a firefly
   Something that's in my eye
   Burn like a firefly
   Dyin' to save your life
  
   (let it burn, let it burn, let it burn, let it burn on me . . . )
   I've been thinking
   There's something in the air
  
   Burn like a firefly
   Fading into the night
   Burn like a firefly
   Something that's in my eye
   Burn like a firefly
   Dyin' to save your life
