Lyrics Fireflies In the Storm - Tony Joe White, Jessi Colter

Fireflies In the Storm

Looking back on all of it now
I don’t think we knew just what we had found
When love is brand new it gets tossed around
Like fireflies in the storm
There was no one else under the sun
And I would not share you with anyone
There were no signs at the change to come
You and I we’re one
Out of the shadows the wildness begins
We wait for morning and darkness moves in
But there’s a light that keeps shining warm
Like fireflies in the storm
Love can be fragile, it can be strong
All you can do is keep holding on
The bare naked truth has a light all its own
Like fireflies in the storm
I look out the window and there is no moon
The tall oaks are dancing to a hard metal tune
You move with the wind or the roots are torn
Like fireflies in the storm
Like fireflies in the storm
