Light Year

I left the fears that held me down

I went to the edges of the universe

I saw the beginning that has no end

And I looked down on something called the Earth

I'm a traveller through time and space

A visitor to distant worlds and galaxies

I'm a light year

I'm a light year away

I'm a light year

So come with me or let me disappear

If you reach for me and I'm not there

I was never really meant to stay anyway

I'm a light year away

I have no need of solid ground

You call my name but there's no answer

Tonight I'm escaping the atmosphere

And I am free to wander anywhere

I'm a fugitive from this gravity

I sail beyond the stars a weightless cosmic breeze

I'm a light year

I'm a light year away

I'm a light year

So come with me or let me disappear

If you reach for me and I'm not there

I was never really meant to stay anyway

I'm a light year

Away, away, away I go

Away, away, away I go

Off on an endless flight

Away on a ray of light

I'm a light year away

I'm a light year

I'm a light year away

I'm a light year

So come with me or let me disappear

If you reach for me and I'm not there

I was never really meant to stay anyway

I'm a light year away
