Golden Eyes by Emachinescat

A Merlin Fan-Fiction

SUMMARY: Arthur knows about Merlin's magic. What he doesn't understand is why Merlin doesn't trust him enough to tell the truth. Parody of Owl City's "Fireflies".


A/N:I absolutely ADORE "Fireflies" by Owl City and actually wrote most of this parody on the way home from work today. Basically the idea of the song is that Arthur already knows about Merlin's magic for some time, and just wishes Merlin would trust him enough to tell him the truth. Please review! Oh, and no slash (it's me, remember, LOL?) and I own nothing but a pair of night splints to stretch out my ankle tendons, a deck of poker cards, and a big headache. ;)


Golden Eyes

Parody of "Fireflies" by Owl City

(VERSE ONE)
I will not be surprised
When you flash your golden eyes
And all around us, my room starts to dance

'Cuz I've known for quite some time
And this time the joke is mine
But somehow, this joke won't make me laugh

(CHORUS)
I'd like to make myself believe
That you do trust in me
It's hard to say "I know" when you
Won't reveal to me
The secret that you keep,
I'll keep it too
I'll keep it too

(VERSE TWO)
But I get a thousand shrugs
When I ask what that noise was
Or how I'm alive when I should have died

'Cuz that sorcerer ran at me
Hissed a spell and his eyes gleamed
He tried to kill me but I'm still alive

(CHORUS)
I'd like to make myself belive
That you do trust in me
It's hard to say "I know" when you
Won't reveal to me
The secret that you keep,
I'll keep it too
I'll keep it too

(BRIDGE)
I'll leave my eyes opened just a crack
-Why must you hide this from me?-
As you clean my room with just a snap
-Why must you hide this from me?-
With me, your secret will be safe
-Why must you hide this from me?-
I swear I'll take it to my grave

(VERSE THREE)
To ten million easy lies
I'll scoff and just roll my eyes
Pretend I'm not hurt that you don't trust me

But maybe someday you'll
Realize I'm not a fool
And you'll tell me what I already see

(CHORUS)
I'd like to make myself believe
That you do trust in me
It's hard to say "I know" when you
Won't reveal to me
The secret that you keep…
Someday there'll be no more lies…

Your golden eyes
