Speed Of Light Lyrics - Soundtrack Exclusives & Rarities - Matthew Sweet

You waited for something 

You turned your mind around 

You tried to consider 

That some hope might be found 

But you still had a long way to go 

'cause you took it your own hands 

To let us know 

How the pain can become too much 

The speed of light just isn't fast enough 

You've broken a promise 

That you once made to me 

If there was a reason 

I never failed to see 

But you still had a long way to go (long way to go) 

To the dawn 

That was threatening never would show (never would show) 

The pain has become too much 

The speed of light just isn't fast enough 

An angel come and set you free 

Though your eyes are closed you continue to see 

You touch the sun that still shines for me 

You waited for something 

You turned your mind around 

You tried to consider 

That some hope might be found 

But you still had a long way to go (long way to go) 

To the dawn 

That was threatening never would show (never would show) 

The pain has become too much 

The speed of light just isn't fast enough 

The speed of light just isn't fast enough
