10 Light Years Away

The Scorpions · Platinum Collection [2006]

In a run down bed and breakfast

A room with a view, across the river

I tried to lose the claustrophobia

Opened up and find Utopia, Utopia



There's no more denying

As my mind goes flying



10 light years away to save my soul

10 light years away to change it all

Whatever it may take I gotta try again

Girl, it's time to start over, 10 light years away



I'd been watching the reflection

Of a bamboo in the shade, when I saw her, oh yeah

A very hot day in Havana

In a midnight blue lagoon



So try, get excited

I knew she was hiding



10 light years away so take me home

10 light years away where I come from

Help me, find today, it's been way too long

Girl, it's time to start over, 10 light years away



There's no more denying

My mind, mind goes flying



10 light years away to save my soul

10 light years away to change it all

Whatever it may take I gotta try again

Girl, it's time to start over



10 light years away so take me home

10 light years away where I come from

Help me find today, it's been way too long

Girl, it's time to start over



10 light years away to save my soul

10 light years away to change it all

Whatever it may take I gotta try again
