As a firefly brings happiness on a quiet moonlit night,
You brought me my smile & forever you would be in my life...
Our days were filled with our historic ups and downs,
Though at times our smiles would be overshadowed by our frowns.

I think back carefully to the times we would yell and fight,
To the times I accused you, condemned you for that one betrayal night,
Though my heart was shattered, I should have listened, let my self believe...
That our love could overcome anything that may be up lifes sleeve..

And now my soul is twisted by a nameless pain
A dagger scarred my heart when you boarded that plane
I wanted to stop you, to hold you, but I refrained,
I feared our history, the way our love became a right/wrong game.

I walk these crowded and hated familiar streets,
The joy of christmas is drowned by the sound of my heavy feet.
I drag my heart through the memories that shout down every road,
The places we shared, where we created our own unique mould.

And now my own behaviour has ripped right through you,
My actions fuelled by anger and hurt, have torn your world in two.
I want you to remember... oh remember... and know just this,
That it is you that I always loved... It is you that I miss...

I still want to wake with you, together grow frail and old,
I so want you to know whats inside my soul.
In your eyes I see myself... I always saw my own reflection...
A sure sign.. a constant comfort.. a definite direction.

So I want you to hear these words while I write from the heart,
While you watch those fireflies by moonlight, in your home yard..
Lets throw away our clothes sewn together by threads of lies,
Lets stand naked in each others shadow & same coloured eyes
