Lyrics Firefly - Burton Cummings

Firefly flashin' on a sticky August night
The children tryin' to put you in a jar and watch your light
And as they study your magic lantern, I know what you're thinkin' of
They are takin' away your chance tonight of findin' somebody to love

You've got to use the night, you've got to get away
You know how to use what you've got, now you're hot, so make your play

And there's a lady out there just waitin' to see your flash in the sky
And she's bearin' a torch that burns just
For you and burnin' it twice as bright

Firefly, make yourself glow
So she's gonna notice you before the night is gone
Firefly, you're lonely I know
You're hopin' she'll be with you before the night is gone
Firefly, you know I'm a lot like you

Firefly, make yourself glow
So she's bound to notice you before the night is gone
Firefly, you're lonely I know
You're hopin' she'll be with you before the night's gone down
Firefly, you know I'm a lot like you

Firefly, make yourself glow
Before the night goes runnin'
Firefly, make yourself glow
Night goes runnin' and mornin' come callin'

Firefly, make yourself glow
Firefly
Firefly, make yourself glow
