Mae - 5 Light Years Lyrics






It was better to start with something
Together we play
But then we left of with something, the right way

Yeah!

And then the sunsets lost it wonder
Together, we played
With broken hearts and nights thunder, but no rain
The wrong pain, yeah
True wasted love sustained in doubt
Pretend we turn the key

I'm 5 Light Years, from before coming there (Yeah-eh)
See all games have come with a price
Where it takes us God and the dealer wise
It, makes love fools of us

But no shame you are the wrong game (Yeah)
True tastes of Love, but laced with doubt
So, ele-mentary

I'm 5 Light Years from before coming there (Yeah)
Goodbye my love if I don't see you again
I'm 5 Light Years from before calling my name (Yeah-eh)

Where it takes us God and the dealer wise
It makes love fools of us

All space becomes free-ways for hearts
And all we played was war
Yeah it became along, the wrong way, yes it was the long way
If grace and love sustained throughout
We tend to hold those... keeps

Goodbye my love if I don't see you again
I'm 5 Light Years from before calling my name (Yeah-eh)
Goodbye my love if I don't see you again
(Goodbye my love if I don't see you again)
I'm 5 Light Years from before calling my name (Yeah-eh)

Oh Whoa Oh

  4. r.... n....

    very good

  5. F.... C....

    Amazing like aways

  6. E.... B....

    Do yourself a favor get yourself a great pair of headphones or speakers and listen to the chorus at 2:02. A true multisensory aesthetic experience. Gave me goosebumps!

  7. t.... ....

    This is the most underrated band that I've know. Keep rockin' it (m)(a)(e)!

  8. G.... ....

    Maaaaaaaaaaaaae.

  9. j.... 0....

    I'm getting a death cab vibe on this song.

  10. M.... ....

    How did I miss this! Welcome back! Forever ever glowing!

  11. W.... ....

    I thought that they were never coming back.

    I recently discovered them and I saw their last album (not counting (m)(a)(e) that was a collection of EPs) was in 2008.

  12. s.... ....

    Never would have expected such a return to roots sound from you guys. Hugely excited for whats next.

  13. K.... ....

    This song's pretty rocking once it gets going. Could use a humbucker in there, though.

  14. b.... ....

    holy moly someone tab this please!

  15. t.... ....

    Just stumbled across this band and I'm getting major death cab vibes and digging it

  16. U.... O....

    Since 2007. Thank you for sharing your sound for us!

  17. i.... ....

    Remember Dave mentioning that MAE tried to get the opening slot for the Fire Theft tour in 03' when they landed the Elliott tour. This feels like MAE evolving into their own version of The Fire Theft the same way SDRE did. It's impressive!

  18. S.... ....

    Sounds great! Can't wait for the album to come out!

  19. T.... J....

    "True taste of love, but laced with doubt, so elementary.." - I'm usually a fan of Mae lyrics. I'm coming to like these more and more. Can't wait for *more!*

  20. G.... ....

    Yaaaaay, Mae!

  21. S.... A....

    is it a coincidence that the song length is 4:20? idk...there are a lot of visuals going on

    S.... A....

    I love this comment...would be lying if I said that didn't cross my mind when editing this. ;)

  22. T.... J....

    YES YES MUCH EXCITE!!

  23. M.... E....

    Hi brand new

  24. V.... t....

    I'm so glad mae is back on toothandnail.

  25. D.... M....

    Top 5 bands of all time. Still doing it and doing it brilliantly. Definitely get a Destination: Beautiful vibe from this. So excited for this album!

  26. T.... P....

    It was better to start with something
    Together we’d play
    But then we both left off with something
    The right way…
    (The wrong way…)
    The right way…

    And when the sunset’s lost its wonder
    Together we’ve paid
    With broken hearts and eyes of thunder
    But no rain…
    The wrong pain, yeah

    True wasted love, sustained in doubt
    Pretend we turn the key…

    I’m FIVE LIGHT YEARS from you calling my name…!

    Table games have come with a price
    Where it takes us, God and the dealer wise
    It makes love fools of us
    But oh, shame…
    You are the wrong game, yeah

    True tastes of love, but laced with doubt
    So elementary…

    I’m FIVE LIGHT YEARS from you calling my name…!

    GOODBYE, MY LOVE, if I don’t see you again...

    I’m FIVE LIGHT YEARS from you calling my name…!

    (…Zero gee, and I feel fine. Capsule is turning around…)
    (…Roger roll, Atlantis…)
    (…Houston now controlling the flight of Atlantis…)
    (…Space shuttle spreads its wings one final time for the start of a sentimental journey into history…)

    All spades
    Three cards
    Freeways
    Four hearts
    And all we played was war
    Yet it came along
    The “wrong” way
    Yes, it was the long way…

    If grace and love sustain throughout
    We tend to hold those...
    Keys…

    GOODBYE, MY LOVE, if I don’t see you again…

    I’m FIVE LIGHT YEARS from you calling my name…!

    Goodbye, my love, if I don’t see you again…

    I’m FIVE LIGHT YEARS from you calling my name…!

    Oh, oh… oh, oh

  27. S.... A....

    S.... A....
