Almost beautiful

I was almost the one, wasn't I?

But wasn't it fun to

Watch someone fall in love with you

Almost beautiful

Everything under the sun

But we didn't try

You went inside and I

Put my raincoat on

My love is a firefly

It only lives for just one night

My love is a firefly

He only lives for just one night

Almost beautiful

And it could have been fun

I wonder why did I

Have to break it down

To see what made it run

Almost a miracle

But it all came undone

I tell you now that I

Lit up like a firefly

Because you were the one

My love is a firefly

He only lives for just one night

My love is a firefly

He only lives for just one night

[vocalizing]

My love is a firefly

It only lives for just one night

Then a flash, that fatal spark

And we're left alone

In the dark

Almost beautiful

I was almost the one

Wasn't I?

Almost beautiful

I was almost the one

Wasn't I?

Almost beautiful

I was almost the one

Wasn't I?

Almost beautiful

I was almost the one

Wasn't I?

Almost beautiful

Almost the one

Wasn't I?

(My love is a firefly)
