Lyrics[]
Freed of the world, shed of the weight
Onward to see you, my friend, oh
Light years above (take me higher)
Time seems to weight (take me)
Promise to see you again
It haunts to remember all the memories of that day
Pre-flight demonstration led the desperate voices fueled by flames
And I'm out here waiting hoping you would send a sign
Came a million miles, and the earth grows small as I lovingly leave it behind
Freed of the world, shed of the weight
Onwards to see you, my friend
We seem to have found it, all the hope we've been denied
There's more than we've been told, we had to find it on the other side
And I must be dreamin', face against the frozen glass
But there's nowhere to turn now, and all the blazes worlds salute as we go flying past
Freed of the world, shed of the weight
Onwards to see you, my friend, oh
Light years above (take me higher)
Time seems to wait (take me)
Promise to see you again
Freed of the world, shed of the weight
Onwards to see you, my friend, oh
Light years above (take me higher)
Time seems to wait (take me)
Promise to see you again
Meet you in the stars tonight
There you find me drifting in the ether within the lull
Meet you in the stars tonight
There you find me drifting in the ether within the lull
Meet you in the stars tonight
There you find me drifting in the ether within the lull
Meet you in the stars tonight
There you find me drifting in the ether within the lull
