2000 Light Years Away lyrics

(by Rolling Stones; Jagger/Richards)


Sun turning 'round with graceful motion
We're setting off with soft explosion
Bound for a star with fiery oceans
It's (it's) so very lonely, you're a hundred light years from home
It's (it's) so very lonely, you're a hundred light years from home

Freezing red deserts turn to dark
Energy here in every metal heart (?)
Energy here in every part
It's (it's) so very lonely, you're six hundred light years from home
It's (it's) so very lonely, you're a hundred light years from home

Sun turning 'round with graceful motion
We're setting off with soft explosion
Bound for a star with fiery oceans
It's (it's) so very lonely, you're a hundred light years from home
It's (it's) so very lonely, you're a hundred light years from home

Guitar solo

It's (it's) so very lonely, you're a thousand light years from home
It's (it's) so very lonely, you're a thousand light years from home

Freezing red deserts turn to dark
Energy here in every metal heart (?)
Energy here in every part
It's (it's) so very lonely, you're six hundred light years from home
It's (it's) so very lonely, you're a hundred light years from home
