Prince 1000 Light Years From Here Lyrics

Now that I got your attention
I think it's 'bout time I mention
The reason why I wrote this song
Like a UFO sighting
From my heart I am writing
The next close encounter
Tell me how long
Will it be on land or near the water
Will it produce the sun or the black moon daughter
Or a pillow covered with all our tears
1000 light years away from here
(1000 light years from here)
1000 light years away from here
(1000 light years from here)

No yesterday or tomorrow
No better rеmedy for sorrow
Or why the fifth held forеver will make you cry I don't know why
1000 light years from here
(1000 light years from here)

Two unbroken circles joined together make a butterfly
Little darling don't you wanna try?
There ain't nothing better than looking for me
And seeing you
Seeing you in the mirror
1000 light years away from here
Why do we always seem so far away?
When you know that I really wanna be with you night and day
I'm running out of ways to say how
So I think I'll just close
For now
