"You would not believe your eyes If ten million fireflies Lit up the world as I fell asleep." - Featuring Virtual Diva and *YS&YS*

I know there are a million bazillion songs that have been written that I could search through when I am on a particular topic; and I know some bloggers obsess on never repeating tunes, but sometimes I just can't help myself. Personally I have decided that if it can go on replay for an hour or so, then it can get another play on the blog. When I took this photo today I was hoping I could find a windlight that would help me capture the mood I was in, and when clicking through the hundreds I have recently downloaded, this appeared, I didn't adjust it, or tweek it all, because it was PERFECT, and so were Owl City's Fireflies flitting around in my mind.

"Fireflies"

You would not believe your eyes
If ten million fireflies
Lit up the world as I fell asleep
'Cause they'd fill the open air
And leave tear drops everywhere
You'd think me rude
But I would just stand and stare

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems

'Cause I'd get a thousand hugs
From ten thousand lightning bugs
As they tried to teach me how to dance
A foxtrot above my head
A sock hop beneath my bed
The disco ball is just hanging by a thread
(Thread, thread...)

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems
(When I fall asleep)

Leave my door open just a crack
(Please take me away from here)
'Cause I feel like such an insomniac
(Please take me away from here)
Why do I tire of counting sheep?
(Please take me away from here)
When I'm far too tired to fall asleep
(Ha-ha)

To ten million fireflies
I'm weird 'cause I hate goodbyes
I got misty eyes as they said farewell
(Said farewell)
But I'll know where several are
If my dreams get real bizarre
'Cause I saved a few and I keep them in a jar
(Jar, jar, jar...)

[2x]
I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems
(When I fall asleep)

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
Because my dreams are bursting at the seams

In case you missed my post earlier this month featuring the newest releases from Virtual Diva for Swank, I wanted to make sure you saw this absolutely fabulous new, original headpiece design for the Reborn dress, and the gorgeous flowing curls of the Dream hair. Swank is closing it's doors and sweeping up its floors for the month so you will probably have to check both locations in the next few days to grab them, but trust me you won't be disappointed if you have to wait! This hair is to die for, and since I happen to have curls almost exactly like this in real life, I have started wearing this hair when I am out and about, or just relaxing at home. The colors and textures are wonderfully done and it comes in two sizes to accommodate our mesh heads. It is a must have if you love curls so make sure to check out the store this week.

The theme for Swank was Summer fun this last round and Virtual Diva released the Reborn dress that happens to come with this amazing head piece. I love the organic flow and daring design that doesn't just go with the dress, it can be a wonderful accent piece to any Summer ensemble, adding a bit of flair and mystique, so go check out the store this week, I promise you will be amazed!
