Distant Light - Alex Lloyd

She sits at table number thirty-five,

The only one of us who’s still alive.

There’s no telling when you need a friend

To get you home and back

Again.

There’s something special in emergency,

It was a heart

But what blind to see.

Lately we’re caught up in the skinny wars,

We like to sit back and compare the scars.

Outside awaits, it’s calling your name,

And it won’t be long.

Tomorrow and a day,

It’s your life from a distant light.

Still doing drive buys in your neighbourhood

I want to leave you but I never could.

It’s just a party, but it’s so much more,

Please feed the socialite before it bores.

There’s no mistake, they keep telling me,

A happy heart has a world to see.

Outside awaits, it’s calling your name

And it won’t be long.

Tomorrow and a day

It’s your life from a distant light.

Distant light,

Distant line.

Distant light,

Distant line.
