(+) The National - 'Light Years'
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
Till we were in the car
Oh the glory of it all was lost on me
Till 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 coulda been anybody
It was after dark
Everyone was lighting up
In the shadows alone
You coulda been right there next to me
And I'd have never known
Oh the glory of it all was lost on me
Till 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
