Light Years lyrics

You were waiting outside for me in the sun

Laying down to soak it all in before we had to run

I was always ten feet behind you from the start

Didn't know you were gone 'til we were in the car

Oh, the glory of it all was lost on me

'Til I saw how hard it'd be to reach you

And I would always be light years, light years away from you

Light years, light years away from you

I thought I saw your mother last weekend in the park

It could've been anybody, it was after dark

Everyone was lighting up in the shadows alone

You could've been right there next to me, and I'd have never known

Oh, the glory of it all was lost on me

'Til I saw how hard it'd be to reach you

And I would always be light years, light years away from you

Light years, light years away from you

Light years, light years away from you

Light years, light years away from you
