FIREFLIES TO NEON

Verse 1 We were barefoot kids in the ‘Bama heat Chasing fireflies through the summer wheat She laughed like a song, wild and free Holding that jar like it held a dream I'd watch her glow in that golden hour And wonder if she knew her power Pre-Chorus Even back then, I just knew Some kind of light was pulling me through Chorus From fireflies to neon lights and everything between I’ve been chasing stages, chasing what it means To turn a song into a prayer, a moment into gold And every time I rise, she’s the hand I’m gonna hold From fireflies to neon… She’s always been the spark behind the dream Verse 2 Now it’s bright marquees and a midnight crowd A thousand hearts singing every sound The rush is real, and I love this life And seeing her there, it all feels right She’s been in every line I wrote The melody inside my soul Pre-Chorus And somewhere along the way I found She never left — she’s still around Chorus From fireflies to neon lights and everything between I’ve been chasing stages, chasing what it means To turn a song into a prayer, a moment into gold And every time I rise, she’s the hand I’m gonna hold From fireflies to neon… She’s always been the spark behind the dream Bridge She’s the glow when the curtain falls When the streets go quiet and the silence calls Through every city, every melody She’s the light that’s always guided me Final Chorus From fireflies to neon lights and everything between She’s the reason I kept going, the heart behind the scene Yeah, the crowd may cheer, and the signs still shine But when the night is done, she’s what’s mine From fireflies to neon… She’s always been the spark behind the dream Outro Yeah, when the town shuts down… She’s still the light that leads me home
