Before you met me I was a fairy princess
I caught frogs and called them prince and myself a queen
Before you knew me I traveled round the world
I slept in castles and fell in love
Because I was taught to dream
[Chorus]
I found mayonnaise bottles and
Poked holes on top to capture Tinkerbell
They were just fireflies to the untrained eye
But I could always tell
I believe in fairytales
And dreamers dreams like bed sheets sales
And I believe in Peter Pan and miracles
Anything I can to get by
And fireflies
Before I grew up I saw you on a cloud
I could bless myself in your name
And patch you on your wings
Before I grew up I heard you whisper so loud,
"Life is hard and so is love child believe in all these things"
[Chorus]
I found mayonnaise bottles and
Poked holes on top to capture Tinkerbell
They were just fireflies to the untrained eye
But I could always tell
I believe in fairytales
And dreamers dreams like bed sheets sales
And I believe in Peter Pan and miracles
Anything I can to get by
And fireflies....
Fireflies

Before you met me I was a fairy princess
I caught frogs and called them prince and myself a queen
Before you knew me I traveled round the world
I slept in castles and fell in love
Because I was taught to dream
