Fireflies
Written by - Patti Smith & Oliver Ray
From - Gone Again
I been walking
Wherefore am I walking
I been walking

If you see me walking
A walking a walking
If you see me walking

Don't avert your eyes
Don't turn away
Don't turn away
I'm coming to you
Oh oh, oh, oh
Oh oh, oh, to you

Living in steps
'Til I can rest
Living in steps
'Til I'm blessed by you

I and I alone
Can but do for you
To twist in my hand
The thorn of thy youth
To draw thy seed
To turn in birth
Thy sighs
(Living in steps)
Thy moans

'Til we can rest
Living in steps
'Til I'm by you

All I ever wanted

I and I alone
I will wash your feet
And dry them with my hair
I will give to you
Every other tear
Thy breath thy spear
Thy season of mirth
Seven steps
Until I can rest
Seven steps
'Til I am blessed by you
All I ever wanted
I wanted I wanted
All I ever wanted
I wanted for you

Oh whoa whoa...
Oh whoa whoa...
All I ever wanted
I wanted for you

Five steps
'Til I can rest
Five steps
'Til I'm blessed by you

Four steps
'Til I can rest
Four steps
'Til I'm blessed by you

All I ever wanted
I wanted I wanted
All I ever wanted
I wanted for you

I and I alone
Ghost of thy ghost
Walk, I will walk
A burning stem
To illume thy night
(Three steps...)
Blood of my blood
Bone of my bone
(Three steps...)
Can but do for you
I and I alone

Two steps
'Til I can rest
Two steps
'Til I'm blessed by you

Oh, oh, oh...
Can but do for you
I and I alone
Oh, oh, oh...
