You tell me that you want a little distance
Baby, I'm your man
You tell me that you want a little distance
I'm the one who can
I can see you feel a little angry
Broken cups and stolen plates
But baby, that's okay
because you send me
Light years away, cold and grey
Beyond the minefield comet's tail
A little farther gone in outer space
I can hold my breath underwater
for at least 90 seconds
I can hold my heart underwater
for at least 90 days
I can hold my breath underwater
for at least 90 seconds
Don't you see I'll do what I have to
To get my own way?
Technicians came to do their same, old spacewalk
I could plainly see security was tight
Scheduled maintenance on your airlock
Guess that's what it takes to make it through the night
I can hold my breath underwater
for at least 90 seconds
I can hold my heart underwater
for at least 90 years
I can hold my breath underwater
for at least 90 seconds
I don't even care if I get water in my ears
You tell me that you want a little distance
Baby, I'm your man
You tell me that you want a little distance
I'm the one who can
I can hold my heart underwater
for at least 90 years
And I don't even care if I get water in my ears
Light years away...
