Intro: A Asus4 A Asus2 (4x)
Me and Charlie boy used to go walking, sittin?? in the
woods behind my house
When being lovers meant a stolen kiss and holding hands
with nobody else around
Charlie said he wanted to get married, but we were only
ten so we??d have to wait
He said we??d never let our love run dry like so many do
these days
(Chorus):
So we treat our love like a firefly, like it only gets to
shine, for a little while
Catch it in a mason jar and with holes in the top and run
like hell to show it off
Oh promises we made when we??d go walkin??, that??s just me
and Charlie talking
Charlie always said he??d like to leave here, turned
eighteen and left our sleepy town
Letters came and went and I kept waiting for Charlie to
come back and bring the life he??d found
Funny how time and distance change you, the road you take
don??t always lead you home
You can start a love with good intentions and then you
look up and it??s gone
(Chorus)
Even now I sometimes think of Charlie, how we thought we
new it all back then
Now I??d give anything to feel love from a child??s heart
again
(Chorus)
The 2nd and 3rd Chorus goes:
So you treat your love like a firefly....
