Lyrics
Lightyears
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Sitting on top of the world
Trying to figure it out
Trying everything new for the first time
Testing your patience by running my mouth
I thought I knew more than I do now
He said I, I was you yesterday
Take your time don't give it all away
Start living life in the moment
Your eyes are barely open then it's gone
When you're playing life by the numbers
Try run away the faster it comes
It's not lightyears away
It's not lightyears away
It isn't lightyears away
You'll never be told
No you'll never listen
Until you've been walking in these shoes
You're just growing older, but don't overthink it
Wear your mistakes like an armour
He said I, I was there yesterday
Take your time, don't give it all away
Start living life in the moment
Your eyes are barely open then it's gone
When you're playing life by the numbers
Try run away the faster it comes
It's not lightyears away
It isn't lightyears away
Yeah, it's not lightyears away
It isn't lightyears away
Time don't wait for no one
(You'll be older when the morning comes 'round)
Time don't wait for no one
(And you'll feel like it's a real long time)
You'll feel like it's a real long time
Start living life in the moment
Your eyes are barely open then it's gone
When you're playing life by the numbers
Try run away the faster it comes
It's not lightyears away
It's not lightyears away
It isn't lightyears away
It's not lightyears away
