Light Years - Edison's Children

«Here I am Light Years from home

Among these stars is now where I roam

I never thought you would be

So many Light Years from me»

Funny how I had always strayed, too far behind you

Now I’m lost here in Outerspace, I thought I’d find you

Drifted off onto far off clouds when the sun came to shine on me

Now I’m lost in this universe, please come bring me back to Earth

«Here I am Light Years from home

Among these stars is now where I roam

I never thought you would be

So many Light Years from me»

Looking at how we drifted away, I took for granted

Now I’m lost here in Outerspace, those seeds we planted

You don’t always appreciate what you’ve got until it’s gone

Now I’ll search celestial seas, what is gonna bring you back to me?

«Here I am Light Years from home

Among these stars is now where I roam

I never thought you would be

So many Light Years from me»

You thought you had what you were looking for… all along

You never know what you’ve got until its gone

You were searching in all the wrong places It’s in the stars tonight

You just have to look up and see it shining bright

«Here I am Light Years from home

Among these stars is now where I roam

I never thought you would be

So many Light Years from me»

Now I sit here alone in space, trying to rewind

What I wouldn’t give to go Light Years back in time

And say exactly what I want to say without fear of losing you

Now I’m lost in this lunacy, pretending like you’re here with me…

I. The Fading

Something disturbed the light

Is there really someone out there?

Lurking out of sight…

Fractions of a broken night sky

I’m just one… another lost soul…

(Just a Silhouette) Now I can’t find my way home

(Another Silhouette) Among the stars is now where I roam

(A fading Silhouette) Here I am, light years from home…

Just a Silhouette

A Fading Silhouette

From a long time ago
