Lyrics:
Your laughter echoed between the house and the trees
Dirt on your shoes and scrapes on your knees
Swearing you were gonna touch that summer sky
Staying out till your mama called you in for the night
The things you don’t know but that I can’t forget
How carefully I laid down every board and thread
So that it might hold up your dreams
Hold the weight of the world on it’s old oak beams
You were always in a hurry
Running through the grass not a care or a worry
God how I wish that time would just stand still
But deep down I know it never will
Ill hold on to Fireflies in mason jars
To ten little toes reaching for the stars
How the days turn to night, the seasons come and go
The swing set it stood, as watched there as you’d grow
But you aren’t around too much now, got a life of your own
Long gone are the days you called these walls home
You were always in a hurry
Running through the grass not a care or a worry
God how I wish time would stand still
But deep down I know it never will
Ill hold on to Fireflies in mason jars
To ten little toes reaching for the stars
The leaves begin to fall where years before
I’d sit and watch you play from the old back porch
The sun is setting down now, and in comes the night
I always knew that some day you were bound to take flight
You were always in a hurry
Running through the grass not a care or a worry
God how I wish time would stand still
But deep down I know it never will
Ill hold on to Fireflies in mason jars
To ten little toes reaching for the stars
