Oh, please don't say that you'll go
My heart can't bear the news
Just knowing that you'll be a thousand light years away
If you do
And will you know when it's through
When you find what you're looking for
Will you know what to do
A thousand light years away when you do
Oh, when you do
And I should've said it before you were gone
Because I'm kicking myself for waiting oh so long
And I should've held you near
Every time I fear
Somehow you just wouldn't feel the same
So please don't say that you'll go
My heart can't bear the news
Just knowing that you'll be a thousand light years away
If you do
Oh, if you do
Well, I'm just sitting here gazing up at the stars
Let's say we pick one out and call the whole thing ours
And even though that light we see
Ain't the same for you and me
Well, you'll know when I'll know
That you and I can even be a thousand light years away
And I still love you
Oh yes, I do
I love you
