Light Years

Drunk as hell this night on the stereo Place your hands in mine, so very old And breathe the silence there to be won And in the night affairs to be done I'm waiting for a lifeline to hold me I'm waiting for a lifeline to hold me I'm waiting for a lifeline to hold me I'm waiting for a lifeline to hold me over my head Hope might hold this house on the merry-go Place your hands in mine, so very cold Light years away from me And god, why can't you see? I'm waiting for a lifeline to hold me I'm waiting for a lifeline to hold me I'm waiting for a lifeline to hold me I'm waiting for a lifeline to hold me over my head Hold my father's soul and I lost it all Breathe the Surrey snow and I gotta go Light years away from me And god, why can't you see?
