Light Years

Heather Nova

You found me drifting,


big motion like a bird,


Strangest song I ever heard.





Now, now that you're here


Stay with me light years,


light years, light years.





No paper, no ring


In the trees where frogs sing.


I brought lilies for you,


think of all the things were gonna do.





Now, now that you're here,


stay with me light years.





I give you a thousand hours,


making love in the tall sunflowers.


I give you a thousand feet


down where the water's deep.





Sleepy storm, sleepy head,


Limb for limb on my bed,





Now, now that you're here,


stay with me light years,


light years, light years,


light years, stay with me,


stay with me, stay.
