Lyrics

She questions the way that the sun leaves the sky
As the miracle fades right in front of her eyes
How a beautiful dusk spreads colour so wide
We never really knew, we never really knew

We were laying on the grass
While we were still young and forever was ours
But summer fades fast
We'll chase a heaven-born memory into our hearts

Flowers grow down by the winding road
Where time goes slow and distance never shows
We're almost home but there's still a way to go

We're Lightyears away
We're Lightyears away

Seasons change 
Will the people we love still love us the same
Will we see them again
When the seeds that we've sown are born again new

Flowers still grow out of the winding road
Where time moves slow and distance never shows
So don't let go there's other worlds to know

We're Lightyears away
We're Lightyears away

We're Lightyears away but we're almost home
Lightyears away from the world we were shown
Lightyears away but we're almost home
Lightyears away...

Inspiration

Lightyears was originally conceived in the Summer of 2011. Inspired by a timelessness felt both in our evolving friendship and in our surroundings. The themes of eternal youth, love, life & death, and reincarnation are prevalent in the track. The cyclical nature of the seasons, of relationships as well as some subtle references to the afterlife itself. ('Don't let go/ There's other worlds to know'). The song touches on the idea of time being an illusion, and that we are all somehow, intrinsically connected through the magnetic energy of our souls. And no greater is this idea demonstrated than through the shared experience of love.
