There's a lot of empty space separating me from you It feels like eternity A lonely place, but I have to make it through Your love is my destiny You're just across the room But on a scale of tears Well it seems like light years Since I first looked into your eyes Light years And saw them fill with sweet surprise Light years Since we said our last goodbye It was a long hard fall when I fell in love with you It felt like immortality I came as close to it as anyone could do But it almost cost my sanity It's not that long ago In our short careers But it seems like light years At least as far as I can see Light years Since I held you close to me Light years My love goes on endlessly And it's just another party and it's just another noise And suddenly our eyes meet and you almost lose you poise And in that fraction of a second I know you love me still because the Light years And I don't know where or when Light years 'Til you're in my arms again Light years I'll be waiting for you until then Light years Since I looked into your eyes Light years And saw them fill with sweet surprise Light years Since we said our last goodbye
