i just want to dance to this song

wait--i'm alone
sitting on this rooftop, looking down at the town below
stop, you caught me by surprise
it's strange how Your glory can be seen in a firefly

and the night is drawing near
i dream about You as the lightning storm appears
and the more i know of You, the more it's clear that

i never know, i never know
what You're gonna to say
i could never know, i could never know
a mystery that way
You're pulsing like a steady heartbeat
rising like a flame towards the sky
You, You cut the night

what's this--this is something new
there is a deeper beauty in this quiet side of You
God, You're soft, soft to the touch
as i run my fingers through these fields that i love so much
You're an evening song, and i'm desperately in love

i try to catch You like a falling star
but what kind of God could i contain in my jar?
oh, i feel You moving, moving through this land
and i kiss the traces of Your unseen hand

...flickering and luminescent,
moving through the universe,
You're like a firefly
