It was better to start with something. Together we'd play, but then we both left off with something the right way.

And when the sunsets lost its wonder, together we've paid. With broken hearts and eyes of thunder, but no rain. The wrong pain, yeah. True, wasted love, sustained in doubt. Pretend we turn the key.

I'm 5 light years from you calling my name.

Table games have come with a price. Where it takes us, God and the dealer wise. It makes love fools of us, but no shame. You are the wrong game, yeah. True tastes of love, but laced with doubt. So elementary.

I'm 5 light years from you calling my name. Goodbye my love if I don't see you again. I'm 5 light years from you calling my name.

All spades, three cards, freeways four hearts, and all we played was war. Yet, it came along the wrong way. Yes, it was the long way. If grace and love sustain throughout, we tend to hold those keys.

Goodbye my love if I don't see you again. I'm 5 light years from you calling my name. (repeat)
