The Light Only Travels So Quickly

from We Were Astronauts by Eleanor and the Atlantic

/

lyrics

In the attic of the universe
You will find that I've been dreaming
Find that I've been dreaming
In the city of stars in your head
You will find that they've been dying
Find that they've been dying slow

In the valley of Los Angeles
You will find that they are drowning
Find that Hollywood is dead
In the places that you want to be
You will find all of the dreamers
See all of the dreamers there

(chorus)
I've got a dream of home
You've got to learn to let go
Oregon I'm coming home
Oregon I'll be right there

I was in heaven
I was in heaven, heaven
And that's when I knew it
That I don't want to live forever

In the city of stars in your head
You will find that they are shining
Find that they are shining bright

I was in heaven
I was in heaven, heaven
And that's when I knew it
That I don't want to live
