Big deeper north of nowhere
Outside the room inside my mind
I look forward to tomorrow
But can I leave yesterday behind
How it feels so strange
To have grown and change
Now, it's not the same
'Cause time
Slip and slide into another place and try
As we might to understand each other
Doesn't really matter where you are
It always seems so very far
It's like you're lightyears away
You're lightyears away from me
Little deeper south of somewhere
It looks much closer than it really is
I held it in my hands
But you're forever out of reach
Far as the eye can see
Nothing is meant to be
Doesn't mean much to me
But, oh
If I only had a rocket ship to fly
I'd be right there in a minute
But it doesn't really matter where you are
However near is still so far
It's like you're lightyears away
You're lightyears away from me
Oh
Far as the eye can see
Nothing is meant to be
Doesn't mean much to me
'Cause time
Slip and slide into another place and try
As we might to understand each other
Doesn't really matter where you are
It always seems so very far
It's like you're lightyears away
You're lightyears away from me
Look forward to tomorrow
But can I leave yesterday behind
Outside the room inside my mind
I look forward to tomorrow
But can I leave yesterday behind
How it feels so strange
To have grown and change
Now, it's not the same
'Cause time
Slip and slide into another place and try
As we might to understand each other
Doesn't really matter where you are
It always seems so very far
It's like you're lightyears away
You're lightyears away from me
Little deeper south of somewhere
It looks much closer than it really is
I held it in my hands
But you're forever out of reach
Far as the eye can see
Nothing is meant to be
Doesn't mean much to me
But, oh
If I only had a rocket ship to fly
I'd be right there in a minute
But it doesn't really matter where you are
However near is still so far
It's like you're lightyears away
You're lightyears away from me
Oh
Far as the eye can see
Nothing is meant to be
Doesn't mean much to me
'Cause time
Slip and slide into another place and try
As we might to understand each other
Doesn't really matter where you are
It always seems so very far
It's like you're lightyears away
You're lightyears away from me
Look forward to tomorrow
But can I leave yesterday behind
