'Cause she's 2000 light years away, years away

I sit outside and watch the sunrise
Lookout as far as I can
I can't see her but in the distance
I hear some laughter we laugh together

I hold my breath and close my eyes and
Dream about her
'Cause she's 2000 light years away

She holds my malakite so tight so
Never let go
'Cause she's 2000 light years away, years away

I sit alone in my bedroom
Staring at the walls
I've been up all darn night long
My pulse is speeding, my love is yearning

I hold my breath and close my eyes and
Dream about her
'Cause she's 2000 light years away

She holds my malakite so tight oh
Never let go
'Cause she's 2000 light years away, years away
