Fireflies

In the rust silhouette of the sunlight
Simmering behind the horizon line
I find love in your kiss
I find love in your touch

An evening walk beneath the summer purple skies
Or waking in the morning yawn of a pink sunrise
I find love in your kiss
I find love in your touch

Your love lights up my life 
Like fireflies

In the mid-day summer scald
Vanilla scent melting beneath a light camisole
I find love in your kiss
I find love in your touch

In the midnight glow where intimacy unfolds
In warm resolve only our souls know
I find love in your kiss
I find love in your touch

Your love lights up my life
Like fireflies

now that's truly a song of the heart....fireflies on the billboard charts....maybe even #1 because it's just that good....and depending on the beat, they might play it in the hood....;)
