The soft autumn wind begins to blow
And I find myself crying as I watch you go
You're leaving me to face the world alone
But I don't want to be on my own

'Cause I want the sunshine to burn all day
And for your smile to chase the shadows away
To lie in the grass with you by my side
And watch the fireflies in July

The summer now has gone and passed
Even though I hoped that it would last
And I think you wouldn't mind if I asked
If you could stay with me and make time fly fast

'Cause I want the sunshine to burn all day
And for your smile to chase the shadows away
To lie in the grass with you by my side
And watch the fireflies in July

September never caused me fear
Until we held each other close this year
And now that I find myself calling you dear
I only want you to stay here

'Cause I want the sunshine to burn all day
And for your smile to chase the shadows away
To lie in the grass with you by my side
And watch the fireflies in July

Bring on the fireflies in the night sky
'Cause I don't want this love to die
So I'll lie in the grass with you by my side
And we'll watch the fireflies of July
