Verse 1: Dreaming of a distant golden sky
In a perfect world where there?s no room to lie
Gazing up into a starry night
Where the stars fall down and bathe in silver light
Chorus: The night?s so cold
But your eyes shine like gold
Your smile is the sky
And this cold grey lit by fireflies
Verse 2: Let me sing for you my broken soul
Let me play for you and rebuild a shattered world
As the river?s running wild and free
I will swim into the fountain of your dreams
Chorus: The night?s so cold
But your eyes shine like gold
Your smile is the sky
And this cold grey ?
Coda: These tiny lights, this darkened night
These stars so bright like fireflies
