[Verse 1: Luke]
When the street lights come on and the fireflies flicker
I am walking her home
Making plans
With her shoes in her hands I am watching her dance
As the hem of her dress gently kisses the grass

[Pre-Chorus: Luke]
It suddenly rains on us
She is laughing and turns up her hands

[Chorus: Luke]
Like autumn turns leaves
Winter will breathe cold on our necks
Snow in our paths
Wherever she goes
All that I know about us is that beautiful things never last
That's why fireflies flash

[Verse 2: Luke]
When this summеr time ends we will not part as friеnds
Things were promised in blood
We have sinned
Now there's tears in her eyes as she's screaming goodbyes
I run 'long side the car
Turning numb to the sound
[Pre-Chorus: Luke]
I notice a chill in the air
September is creeping up fast

[Chorus: Luke]
Like autumn turns leaves
Winter will breathe cold on our necks
Snow in our paths
Wherever she goes
All that I know about us is that beautiful things never last
That's why fireflies flash

[Outro: Luke]
Yeah
