asleep with the fireflies lyrics

My girl she's asleep now
Fleas leave her, jump to the ground
Through a train window
Flickering like a film frame

With twenty-four times a second
Me and my girl gonna make it if we try

'Cause I've been hanging around
My head in my hands and my feet on the ground
It's been too long, been chasing tales
I'm gonna leave the city, I'm gonna set sail
I'm gonna set sail, I'm gonna set sail

I fell asleep with the fireflies
But let the moonlight pass me by

On this long and lifeless road we walk on
Me and my girl gonna make it if we try

'Cause I've been hanging around
My head in my hands and my feet on the ground
It's been too long, chasing tales
I'm gonna leave the city, I'm gonna set sail
I'm gonna set sail, I'm gonna set sail

Turn out the lights
I see a sign and a sunset, yeah
Ah, look at my life, could be a loser, baby
Could be a loser but with you I forget, now there is

No use flapping around like a headless chicken
Me and my girl gonna make it if we try

'Cause I've been hanging around
My head in my hands and my feet on the ground
It's been too long, chasing tales
I'm gonna leave the city, I'm gonna set sail

'Cause I've been hanging around
My head in my hands and my feet on the ground
It's been too long, chasing tales
I'm gonna leave the city, I'm gonna set sail
I'm gonna set sail, I'm gonna set sail

I'm gonna set sail, I'm gonna set sail
I'm gonna set sail, I'm gonna set sail
I'm gonna set sail, I'm gonna set sail
