Firefly - Allan Taylor/Ian Melrose/Chris Lesslie/Udo Weihrauch

She would dance like a firefly

Like she's floating through the air

A shining star In an endless sky

She could sparkle anywhere

And she can dance like a firefly

And she's floating through the air

A shining star In an endless sky

She can sparkle anywhere

Her jewels are the words he sings for her

Her house a broad oak tree

Her joy Is but a simple dream

That flowers now It's f
