Light Years lyrics

I've used hammers made of wood

I have played games with pieces and rules

I have deciphered tricks at the bar

But now you're gone, I haven't figured out why

I've come with riddles, and jokes about war

I figured out numbers and what they're for

I've understood feelin's and I've understood words

But how could you be taken away?

And where ever you've gone, and where ever we might go

It don't seem fair, today just disappeared

Your light's reflected, now

Reflected from afar

We were but stones, your light made us stars

With heavy breath, awakened regrets

Back pages and days alone that could've been spent

Together, but we were, miles apart

Every inch between us becomes light years now

No time to be void, or save up on life

Oh, you gotta spend it all

And where ever you've gone, and where ever we might go

It don't seem fair, you seem to like it here

Your light's reflected now

Reflected from afar

We were but stones, your light made us stars

And where ever you've gone, and where ever we might go

It don't seem fair, today just disappeared

Your light's reflected now

Reflected from afar

We were but stones, your light made us stars.
