lyrics

Lightning Bugs of August


On the median we walked all night
The moon was our drum
Lightning bugs of August rose
We found them in our hands
We crushed them with our thumbs

You came to me a foolish fire,
Sweet and so insane.
We tore the bark right off of the pine
Nothing in this world
Will ever be the same

All the dark in Joan of Arc
Fell down from above
All the dark in Joan of Arc
Sang out like a dove
But could not retrieve our love

Last night I dreamed of a happy shore
But today is today.
Last night I dreamed that you still lived
Nothing in this world
Will ever be the same
