[00:00.00]Firefly - Allan Taylor\/Ian Melrose\/Chris Lesslie\/Udo Weihrauch
[00:11.24]She would dance like a firefly
[00:15.77]
[00:16.76]Like she's floating through the air
[00:20.42]
[00:22.10]A shining star In an endless sky
[00:26.81]
[00:27.85]She could sparkle anywhere
[00:31.52]
[00:33.57]And the young men came from far and near
[00:38.69]To offer flowers each In his turn
[00:42.80]
[00:44.37]And they would promise their undying devotion
[00:48.60]
[00:50.00]For her love In return
[00:54.28]
[01:01.14]And the first who stood before her
[01:05.07]
[01:06.34]Was a builder by his trade
[01:10.45]
[01:11.63]His back was strong his hands were gentle
[01:16.08]
[01:17.33]And he showed her the things he'd made
[01:21.21]
[01:23.29]I will build you a house In the valley
[01:26.90]
[01:28.46]Where the stream flows swiftly by
[01:32.67]
[01:34.12]And on the banks of the sweet primroses
[01:38.40]
[01:39.67]You and I will lie
[01:44.19]
[01:48.07]And the next to make his declaration
[01:52.00]
[01:53.38]Was a young man of high renown
[01:57.54]
[01:58.92]Standing keen In expectation
[02:03.54]
[02:05.08]He would not be outdone
[02:08.75]
[02:10.27]I will give you gold and riches
[02:14.21]
[02:15.33]A diamond ring for your fair hand
[02:19.63]
[02:21.04]Every wish you crave will be granted
[02:25.26]
[02:26.92]And I will be at your command
[02:31.07]
[03:00.72]A wandering minstrel on his travels
[03:04.77]
[03:05.87]Chanced to pass along her way
[03:10.06]
[03:11.20]He sang her songs of sweet affection
[03:15.57]
[03:17.06]And with his charms he held her sway
[03:21.65]
[03:22.88]I have no house to offer you
[03:27.04]
[03:28.11]Nor money have I none
[03:32.12]
[03:33.80]But you will be my poetry
[03:38.25]
[03:39.51]And I will be your song
[03:43.23]
[03:47.14]And so It came they took a winding road
[03:51.97]
[03:52.54]And cast their cares upon the wind
[03:56.81]
[03:58.23]To see the days and sing the seasons
[04:02.51]
[04:03.77]Is never asking what lay beyond
[04:07.77]
[04:09.85]Her jewels were the words he sang for her
[04:14.49]
[04:15.31]Her house a broad oak tree
[04:18.89]
[04:21.07]Her joy was but a simple dream
[04:25.11]
[04:26.48]That flowers when It's free
[04:30.31]
[04:59.89]And she can dance like a firefly
[05:03.95]
[05:05.62]And she's floating through the air
[05:09.06]
[05:10.61]A shining star In an endless sky
[05:15.02]
[05:16.13]She can sparkle anywhere
[05:20.08]
[05:21.90]Her jewels are the words he sings for her
[05:26.69]
[05:27.52]Her house a broad oak tree
[05:31.04]
[05:32.83]Her joy Is but a simple dream
[05:37.13]
[05:38.44]That flowers now It's free
