Lyrics Colin James

Colin James

40 Light Years

Put your feet on the dashboard baby take a ride and c'mon

There's nothing left to lose but the moon now the money's all gone

And when you get back

You get back down

Wait all night for you to come around

I'd like to get to know you but you're 40 light years away

You can come a little closer but you're 40 light years away

What you gonna do honey now that the sun's gone down

Trying to find love when you're living in a one-horse town

I've had the blues

For 14 days

Cause there's a hole in the sky and it's here to stay

I'd like to get to know you but you're 40 light years away

Want to get to know you but you're 40 light years away

You can watch 'em come and go yeah they come and go all night long

Buffalo girls, blind Willie burn the dance floor down

Way down...

Well it's a long dark road baby where you been?

I keep knocking but I can't come in

Came to get you home but you're 40 light years away

I need to get you back but you're 40 light years away

I want to get to know you but you're 40 light years away

I need to get to know you but you're 40 light years away
