Speed Of Light - Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark

The speed of light slows down

As the feather hits the ground

And if nothing else gets proved

Its always faster than it sounds

A star that shines so bright

Would be eclipsed tonight

When you kiss the satellite

Because there was always you

And you alone believed

That light could bend this way

It dont seem right

To spend tonight

As I did today

If I had known that you would call

If I could dream that you would fall

If I could change these wrongs to right

I would have stayed at home tonight

Theres nothing you can do To make this all brand new

And nothing you can say

To make it go away

Youve never been so wrong

So how can you act strong

When a fall from grace so hard

Should never take so long

And sat goodbye as you did today

If I had known that you would call

If I could dream that you would fall

If I could change these wrongs to right

I would have stayed at home tonight

So the speed of light remains

Ever constantly the same

Again tonight as it today

If I had known that you would call

If I could dream that you would fall

If I could change these wrongs to right

I would have stayed at home tonight

If I had known that you would call

If I could dream that you would fall

If I could change these wrongs to right

I would have stayed at home tonight
