Underneath a sky of ink and green
You caught a lantern where the wild grass leaned
Your laughter floating on the humid air
I didn't know that I'd be longing there
Windows rolled down your hand inside of mine
County roads and every single sign
Oh fireflies in July
We were young we didn't try
First kiss on a summer night
Kept the whole world warm and bright
Now the fields are dim and still
Just a jar left on the sill
Oh fireflies in July
Radio playing something soft and low
Headlights writing poems as we go
Every mile a promise we believed
Every star above us unprepared to leave
Salt on your lips your hair a summer wind
All the roads unrolled and yet we didn't end
Oh fireflies in July
We were young we didn't try
First kiss on a summer night
Kept the whole world warm and bright
Now the fields are dim and still
Just a jar left on the sill
Oh fireflies in July
Maybe love is just a long slow drive
Through the years you leave the window open wide
And the glowing things you tried to hold
Were the summer slipping through your hands of gold
Oh fireflies in July
Oh fireflies in July
