2000 Light Years Away (BBC Live Session) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I sit alone in my bedroom
Starin' at the walls
I've been up all damn night long
My pulse is speedin', my love is yearnin'

[Chorus]
I hold my breath and close my eyes and
Dream about her
'Cause she's 2000 light-years away
She holds my malachite so tight, so
Never let go
'Cause she's 2000 light-years away
Years away!

[Verse 2]
I sit outside and watch the sunrise
Lookout as far as I can
I can't see her, but in the distance
I hear some laughter, we laugh together

[Chorus]
I hold my breath and close my eyes and
Dream about her
'Cause she's 2000 light-years away
She holds my malachite so tight, so
Never let go
'Cause she's 2000 light-years away
Years away!
[Verse 1]
I sit alone in my bedroom
Starin' at the walls
I've been up all damn night long
My pulse is speedin', my love is yearnin'

[Chorus]
I hold my breath and close my eyes and
Dream about her
'Cause she's 2000 light-years away
She holds my malachite so tight, oh
Never let go
'Cause she's 2000 light-years away
Years away!

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
