Firefly
Composer(s): Carolyn Leigh - Cy Coleman
Performer(s): Tony Bennett



I call her firefly, 'cause, oh my
She radiates moon glow
Wants none of that noon glow
She starts to glitter when the sun goes down

By eight p.m., it's mayhem
She switches the brights up
Lights up and gives me a call
"Hey, take me to the fireflies ball"

But when I get her there, set her there
Do I get to pet her there and grab me some glow?
No, she's a gad-about, mad about lurin' ev'ry lad about
While leavin' me moanin' low

Oh firefly, why can't I latch on to you no how?
Oh how I love you, but gee
While you set the night on fire, fly
Shine a little light on me
