Select language to translate this lyric
Fireflies hold back the dying day
It's a valiant effort
Stars start to dance up in the haze
And the shy moon is on the run
Through the night till morning comes
Dressed in silken flames of glory
This life is a canvas on fire
Burn bright, live your deepest desire
For the time here on this side of Heaven
Will fly like sparks in the night
This life is a gift from the one
Who gives life to every daughter and son
Take the time here on this side of Heaven
To find the road that goes on beyond this life
We don't have time for bad goodbyes
Make a valiant effort
To see everyone through Heaven's eyes
Every heart has a load to bear
On the way to where our cares
Melt into the weight of glory
This life is a canvas on fire
Burn bright, live your deepest desire
For the time here on this side of Heaven
Will fly like sparks in the night
So work like you're worth more than money
And love like you've never been hurt
And dance like you do when no one is watching you
This life is a canvas on fire
Burn bright, live your deepest desire
For the time here on this side of Heaven
Will fly like sparks in the night
Fireflies hold back the dying day
