[00:10.70]Thirty years ago I was a little girl
[00:16.18]Riding in the back seat of the car.
[00:21.43]A woman sang 'You don't bring me flowers anymore.'
[00:26.94]I felt the sadness in my little heart.
[01:59.02][00:32.39]We're looking for the music
[02:04.71][00:37.58]In the music box,
[02:10.57][00:43.39]Tearing it to pieces,
[02:15.96][00:48.63]Trying to find a song.
[00:54.24]I was drawn to you in ways I can't explain.
[00:59.66]I fought like crazy but I couldn't stay away.
[01:04.73]Piled on expectations and lots of blame,
[01:10.57]Like we couldn't do it any other way.
[01:16.00]We're looking for a firefly
[01:21.08]Moving through the night,
[01:26.55]Staring at that one place
[01:32.22]Swear it never lights.
[02:21.45]Were you surprised our hearts were not like ticking clocks?
[02:26.83]The faces and hands easy to read.
[02:32.06]We both wished 'if only in the land of Oz.'
[02:37.80]And longed for things we'd never really need.
[02:43.17]Now we're standing in the kitchen,
[02:48.20]All pretense is gone.
[02:54.06]You kiss me on the shoulder.
[02:59.38]Fireflies and songs.
