Maybe-

[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

Maybe-

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...)
