Sometimes it feels like the weight
of the world is on your shoulders
And sometimes it feels like there's a
monkey on your back
Sometimes life can get heavy and
you need to lighten up
So before you get too far off track
Just give me light years,
when time flies
That's when I'll know that
I've been having a good time
Just give me light years and
get me away from here
I'm tired of trying to get ahead
so make me disappear
Make the rest of this life
flash before my eyes
With the power to pause and rewind
I only want the highlights
as my life passes by
Just give me light years
when time flies
Sometimes it feels like forever
just to get through a day
And sometimes it feels like life
is just a daily grind
Sometimes you work so hard
you forget to have fun
So instead of just getting by,
Just give me light years,
when time flies,
That's when I'll know that I've
been having a good time,
Just give me light years,
get me away from here,
I'm tired of trying to get ahead,
So make me disappear,
make the rest of this
Flash before my eyes with the
power to pause and rewind.
I only want the highlights
as my life passes by.
Just give me light years
when time flies.
Maybe fast forward is all I need.
Or a virtual reality machine.
Gotta stop taking it all so seriously.
Gotta get busy living the dream
Just give me light years,
when time flies
That's when I'll know that
I've been having a good time
Just give me light years,
get me away from here
I'm tired of trying to get ahead,
so make me disappear
Make the rest of this life
flash before my eyes
With the power to pause and rewind
I only want the high,
life has my life passed by
Just give me light years, when time flies
