Ten-Thousand Light-Years lyrics

Wish I had met that girl before

I signed my life away off-world

When I didn't have a reason to be alive

Now she's so far from me, stuck on Alpha Centauri

And I'm out here with a broken hyperdrive

I'm a lost and lonely outlaw sailing on the starry sea

I would sell my sorry soul to bring my baby back to me

10,000 Light-Years away

She's my guiding star

After every hurricane

She's like the sun's shining rays

Even from so far, pulling on my heart

Her gravity remains

If I could turn back time to when

I could hold her hand in mine

I would find some excuse just not to leave

Five years since I've left port

And I'm running low on life support

Yeah but, that's not the reason I can't breathe

It's a lonely night in hell aboard this broken privateer

I would brave a hundred-thousand more to taste her atmosphere

10,000 Light-Years away

She's my guiding star after every hurricane

She's like the sun's shining rays

Even from so far, pulling on my heart

Her gravity remains

10,000 Light-Years away

She's my guiding star after every hurricane

She's like the sun's shining rays

Even from so far, pulling on my heart

Her gravity remains
