The Lights Lyrics

The Lights lyrics

I follow the path of a falling star

It takes me closer to where you are,
are

What can I do, I try to be with you

But I can only go so far



You're light years ahead of me

So bright that I can't help but
see

And you, I know how good it could be



I try to look
outside myself

I try to find some outside help

I'll try to sleep
'till you come up tonight



And I'll lie down right under the
lights

For a little while I can feel all right

A better life is in
plain sight

I'll be fine until the time comes to put out all of the
lights



 Half a moon is moon enough

To get me all the way
across the bay

A roman candle shoots off from the beach

And
lightning strikes a place way out of my reach



I'd say I have the
perfect view

If only it was always true

But in dark is it most of
the time



 When I get right down in front of the lights

Sometimes I really start to feel all right

A better life is in plain
sight

I'll be fine until the sun comes up and dims the light of the
night



 Come up right down next to me

I don't have to say
anything

It's better than any made up fantasy



Looking out
and looking up

I can see with my eyes shut

This might just be the
best time of my life



 And when I get right down in front of the
lights

Sometimes I really start to feel all right

A better life is
in plain sight

I'll be fine until the time comes to put out all of the
lights
