"Fireflies" by Owl City, performed in sign language by Stephen Torrence. My first release of December Song Week. Keep an eye out for more! Lyrics/gloss below, captions on the way. You would not believe your eyes AMAZING! SEE If ten million fireflies TEN MILLION LIGHT FLIES Lit up the world as I fell asleep I SLEEP, WORLD LIGHT-UP 'Cause they'd fill the open air FLIES [NUMEROUS] And leave teardrops everywhere TEAR DROPS [ALL-AROUND] You'd think me rude I MAYBE RUDE But I would just stand and stare I STAND, LOOK-AROUND I'd like to make myself believe I REALLY WANT BELIEVE That planet Earth turns slowly WORLD ROTATE SLOW It's hard to say that I'd rather stay I PREFER SLEEP, DREAM, Awake when I'm asleep NOT AWAKE 'Cause everything is never as it seems WHY? VARIETY 'Cause I'd get a thousand hugs I RECEIVE MANY HUG From ten thousand lightning bugs FROM TEN THOUSAND LIGHT FLIES As they tried to teach me how to dance THEY TEACH-ME HOW DANCE A foxtrot above my head [DANCING ABOVE] A sock hop beneath my bed BED [DANCING BELOW] A disco ball is just hanging by a thread LIGHT BALL [HANG THIN LINE] [chorus] Leave my door open just a crack MY DOOR [OPEN SLIGHTLY] (Please take me away from here) 'Cause I feel like such an insomniac I FEEL RESTLESS (Please take me away from here) Why do I tire of counting sheep SHEEP COUNT 1-2-3 BORING (Please take me away from here) When I'm far too tired to fall asleep I TIRED EXCESSIVE, CANT SLEEP To ten million fireflies TEN MILLION LIGHT FLIES I'm weird 'cause I hate goodbyes [LOOK-AT-ME] THINK HE WEIRD I got misty eyes as they said farewell WHY? THEY LEAVE, I CRY But I'll know where several are BUT IF MY DREAMS STRANGE If my dreams get real bizarre I CAN FIND SEVERAL 'Cause I saved a few and I keep them in a jar {JAR} I CATCH, KEEP [chorus x3] Because my dreams are bursting at the seams MY DREAMS [BURSTING THROUGH]
