Text: Turin Brakes. Asleep With The Fireflies.
My girl she's asleep now
Fleas leave her, jump to the ground
Through a train window
Flickering like a film frame
With twenty-four times a second
Me and my girl gonna make it if we try
'Cause I've been hanging around
My head in my hands and my feet on the ground
It's been too long, been chasing tales
I'm gonna leave the city, I'm gonna set sail
I'm gonna set sail, I'm gonna set sail
I fell asleep with the fireflies
But let the moonlight pass me by
On this long and lifeless road we walk on
Me and my girl gonna make it if we try
'Cause I've been hanging around
My head in my hands and my feet on the ground
It's been too long, chasing tales
I'm gonna leave the city, I'm gonna set sail
I'm gonna set sail, I'm gonna set sail
Turn out the lights
I see a sign and a sunset, yeah
Ah, look at my life, could be a loser, baby
Could be a loser but with you I forget, now there is
No use flapping around like a headless chicken
Me and my girl gonna make it if we try
'Cause I've been hanging around
My head in my hands and my feet on the ground
It's been too long, chasing tales
I'm gonna leave the city, I'm gonna set sail
'Cause I've been hanging around
My head in my hands and my feet on the ground
It's been too long, chasing tales
I'm gonna leave the city, I'm gonna set sail
I'm gonna set sail, I'm gonna set sail
I'm gonna set sail, I'm gonna set sail
I'm gonna set sail, I'm gonna set sail
I'm gonna set sail, I'm gonna set sail
Fleas leave her, jump to the ground
Through a train window
Flickering like a film frame
With twenty-four times a second
Me and my girl gonna make it if we try
'Cause I've been hanging around
My head in my hands and my feet on the ground
It's been too long, been chasing tales
I'm gonna leave the city, I'm gonna set sail
I'm gonna set sail, I'm gonna set sail
I fell asleep with the fireflies
But let the moonlight pass me by
On this long and lifeless road we walk on
Me and my girl gonna make it if we try
'Cause I've been hanging around
My head in my hands and my feet on the ground
It's been too long, chasing tales
I'm gonna leave the city, I'm gonna set sail
I'm gonna set sail, I'm gonna set sail
Turn out the lights
I see a sign and a sunset, yeah
Ah, look at my life, could be a loser, baby
Could be a loser but with you I forget, now there is

'Cause I've been hanging around
My head in my hands and my feet on the ground
It's been too long, chasing tales
I'm gonna leave the city, I'm gonna set sail
I'm gonna set sail, I'm gonna set sail
I'm gonna set sail, I'm gonna set sail
I'm gonna set sail, I'm gonna set sail
I'm gonna set sail, I'm gonna set sail
