Robert palmer light years lyrics

I'm looking down from a precipice



I hear a roar from behind



The whole world's pushing



To let them pass



I think they'd best wait in line



I'm in the eye of a hurricane



I wait for mountains to fall



The world comes thundering down again



But nothing gets through these walls



I've waited light years for this moment



I've waited light years for you







I'm out there watching the sun come up



And I've got nowhere to hide



The world keeps on pushing



Just to get a look



But I'm not stepping aside



Forces have met to bring me here to you



Nothing on earth can keep me from the truth



Now the eternal flame at last burns bright again



The wait was not in vain



Now that I've found you



The storm is raging around us all



A shelter forms in my mind



The world keeps pushing upon my door



But I won't let them inside
