Lyrics to In Light Years (ILY)
I prefer crying all on my own
I always thought we'd have so much time
And are you in my dreams I have alone?
And your laugh when you smiled is replayed in my mind
In a better place
I count the light years it’d take
Do you see how much I need you right now?
In light years
The long haul of my life is missin' you
In light years
The face I’ve always loved is missin' too
In light years, the hugs I need to feel
To always get me through the day
And make it okay
I miss you
I've never felt this way before
Everything that I do reminds me of you
And the ones you left, knock on heavens door
And we plead just like you
I’ve done the things that you do
In a better place
I count the light years it’d take
Do you see how much I need you right now?
In light years
The long haul of my life is missin' you
In light years
The face I always loved is missin' too
And in light years, the hugs I need to feel
To always get me through the day
And make it okay
I miss you
I know we’ll see each other, in time together
Right now I hurt, yeah, yeah
Now all I ever do is mourn for you and pray
Leaving behind the, stories you never made
I can hardly breathe, I need to feel you here with me, yeah
In light years
The long haul of my life is missin' you
In light years
The face I always loved is missin' too
In light years, the hugs I need to feel
To always get me through the day
And make it okay
I miss you, mmm
I always thought we'd have so much time
And are you in my dreams I have alone?
And your laugh when you smiled is replayed in my mind
In a better place
I count the light years it’d take
Do you see how much I need you right now?
In light years
The long haul of my life is missin' you
In light years
The face I’ve always loved is missin' too
In light years, the hugs I need to feel
To always get me through the day
And make it okay
I miss you
I've never felt this way before
Everything that I do reminds me of you
And the ones you left, knock on heavens door
And we plead just like you
I’ve done the things that you do
In a better place
I count the light years it’d take
Do you see how much I need you right now?
In light years
The long haul of my life is missin' you
In light years
The face I always loved is missin' too
And in light years, the hugs I need to feel
To always get me through the day
And make it okay
I miss you
I know we’ll see each other, in time together
Right now I hurt, yeah, yeah
Now all I ever do is mourn for you and pray
Leaving behind the, stories you never made
I can hardly breathe, I need to feel you here with me, yeah
In light years
The long haul of my life is missin' you
In light years
The face I always loved is missin' too
In light years, the hugs I need to feel
To always get me through the day
And make it okay
I miss you, mmm
