Light Years Lyrics by Pearl Jam

Light Years Lyrics

    I’ve used hammers made out of wood
    I have played games with pieces and rules
    I’ve deciphered tricks at the bar
    But now you’re gone, I haven’t figured out why
    I’ve come up with riddles and jokes about war
    I’ve figured out numbers and what they’re for
    I’ve understood feelings, and I’ve understood words
    But how could you be taken away?

    And wherever you’ve gone, and wherever we might go
    It don’t seem fair, today just disappeared
    Your light’s reflected now, reflected from afar
    We were but stones, your light made us stars

    The heavy breath, awakened regrets
    Backpages and days alone, that could have been spent
    Together, but we were miles apart
    Every inch between us becomes light years now
    No need to be void, or save up on life
    You got to spend it all

    And wherever you’ve gone, and wherever we might go
    It don’t seem fair, you seemed to like it here
    Your light’s reflected now, reflected from afar
    We were but stones, your light made us stars

    And wherever you’ve gone, and wherever we might go
    It don’t seem fair, today just disappeared
    Your light’s reflected now, reflected from afar
    We were but stones, your light made us stars
