To the future that is distant,
But fast approaching, Hi.
I hope I can catch my dreams like fireflies,
Bottle them in a jar labeled mine and hope.
Hope that my future will be as bright as the jar with fireflies.

Hope to find love that builds,
Like a wooden cottage hidden underneath the treeline.
Take my son on boat rides on the river in the morning.
To the future that is distant,
But fast approaching, Hi.

I hope you illuminate the rest of my life,
Casting a shadow on the not so bright moments.
Having me seated around a bonfire with my family and friends,
Sharing memories like old war stories.
Feel your presence even when you are not around,
And create a future where we are finally united.

So to the future that is distant,
But fast approaching,
I hope our ending is like that Avicci song,
Where that boy releases the fireflies and the music drowns the words.
