i see ya dancin, by my side
rollin like a river, burnin like a fire
     so i call ya firefly
you could make it to the moon
     yeah, if ya tried 

keepa runnin on the edge of the night
 with yer fire burnin so bright 
  n ya don’t need to try to fly so high
   what’s yer fire for, my firefly?

some people don’t know what to believe in 
some people really care 
some people don’t know anything at all 
     there ain’t no easy way out
     but you can roll with the wind 
     n any time you want
     you can roll right over n die 

mountains dream of the sky 
down by the riverside, they say how the ocean’s wide 
     there ain’t no easy way out
     but you can roll with the wind 
     n any time you want
     you can roll right over n die 

n you might say yer never
   that yer never gonna win
      n never gonna sin again 
n you might think it’s never
   never gonna happen to you 
      nothin’s gonna see ya through 
but whatcha gonna do
   where’re you gonna fall
      when the fire’s passed to you?

i see you fly so high
     yeah, up to the sky 
you could make it to the moon
     yeah, if ya tried 

keepa runnin on the edge of the night
 with yer fire burnin so bright 
  n ya don’t need to try to fly so high
   what’s yer fire for, my firefly?

some people, ya can’t say ya didn’t attack them
that says they were wrong
which is an attack unto itself
n you were wrong, all along
     there ain’t no easy way out…
	 
some people take it easy
n then they take it hard 
some people love 
pushin round a little white dove 
     there ain’t no easy way out
     but you can roll with the wind 
     n any time you want
     you can roll right over n die
