I'm a wide-eyed firefly
Through the black I burn,
I'm a wide-eyed firefly
To whom it may concern

You can catch me in the night
You can catch me in your sights,
'Cause I'm a wide-eyed firefly!
Shining bright, doin' alright

I will not let you down,
I will not let you down!

I'm a star in a jar
Poke the holes in the lid
I'm the newfound glory
In the eyes of a kid

You can give me a new name!
You can compare me to the flame!
But I'm a wide-eyed firefly
Never to be tamed

I will not let you down,
I will not let you down!

I'm a dying breed
Floating by the main-stream
You can find me residing
There within it's dreams
If you fall into the night!
If you fail to bring your light!

I'm a wide-eyed firefly
Shining bright, doin' alright

I will not let you down,
I will not let you down!
