Yellow (Like Catching Fireflies) Lyrics

Like catching fireflies, a little light in your hand

Like catching fireflies, see where this one lands

Like catching fireflies, don't let it crush under the weight

Like catching fireflies, I don't want to let it go

Like everything that brought me joy in my life

Its light is yellow

Like catching fireflies, a little ball of light that I can't let go

Like catching fireflies, I want to keep its glow

Do I feel empty without it?

I won't lose it and won't start to doubt it

Like catching fireflies

Its flicker reflecting in my eyes

Like going home, it's like having her with me

And the way she believed in me

Like the mem'ries I had as a boy

Like everything that brings me joy

It's yellow

Achieving victory, it slips from your hands so easily

My heart is racing, I see yellow skies

My gift to her, like catching fireflies

Do I feel empty without it?

I won't lose it and won't start to doubt it

Like catching fireflies

Its flicker reflecting in my eyes

Like going home, it's like having her with me

And the way she believed in me

Like the mem'ries I had as a boy

Like everything that brings me joy

It's yellow

It's yellow

Keep smiling, keep moving forward

In what you do

Keep smiling, keep moving forward

I'll be with you

I'll keep going until my legs give out

I won't lose it and won't start to doubt

Like going home, it's like having her with me

And the way she believed in me

Like the mem'ries I had as a boy

Like everything that brings me joy

It's yellow

It's yellow

Oh, it's yellow

It's yellow

Like catching fireflies
