Fireflies by Owl City

You would not believe your eyes
If ten million fireflies
Lit up the world as I (1)________ asleep
'Cause they fill the open air,
And leave teardrops everywhere
You'd think me rude, but I would just stand and... stare

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems

'Cause I get a (2)________________ hugs
From ten thousand lightning bugs
As (3)________ try to teach me how to dance
A foxtrot above my head,
A sock hop beneath my bed,

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep

Because my dreams are bursting at the seams
