Iron Maiden Speed Of Light lyrics

Another time another place
A hollow universe in space
I took a trip to see the sights
It will be blacker than the night

One way ticket no returns
My shooting star so fast it burns
On the edge there you can see
Let's shoot the moon you and me
I'm not particular youll see
I'm just a loansome galaxy

Shadows and the stars
We will not return
Humanity won't save us
At the speed of light
Shadows and the stars
We will not return
Humanity won't save us
We slip into the night

I'll say a mass for you and wave
Shooting plasma from my grave
Even horizon lost in space
Running in a human race
I don't know where I don't know when
But somehow back then time began

I'm on the edge that you can see
I'm not particular at night
A single particle of me
You won't be dragging me from sight

Shadows and the stars
We will not return
Humanity won't save us
At the speed of light
Shadows and the stars
We will not return
Humanity won't save us
We slip into the night

(Solo)

Shadows and the stars
We will not return
Humanity won't save us
At the speed of light
X4

We slip into the night
