lyrics

The firefly says, "Why can’t I
Shine my light on me?
I glowingly illuminate
Everything I see.
People, trees, dogs & bees
Are illumined by my presence.
Of all the things that are near to here,
I’m the only thing that isn’t."

The firefly’s got it right
She shines her light at night
As during the day the sun
From dawn till day is done
As you & I shine clear
Our awareness on all near
But like the firefly
I can never shine on I
