2000 Light Years From Home

from John Vieira IV: An Orange Haze of Dawn by John Vieira

about

Originally Written by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards. Released in November 1967 on their "Their Satanic Majesties Request" album. Features an amazing mellotron part played by Brian Jones, which I replicate religiously on my Nord Stage 2.

lyrics

Sun turnin' 'round with graceful motion
We're setting off with soft explosion
Bound for a star with fiery oceans
It's so very lonely, you're a hundred light years from home

Freezing red deserts turn to dark,
Energy here in every part.
It's so very lonely, you're six hundred light years from home
It's so very lonely, you're a thousand light years from home
It's so very lonely, you're a thousand light years from home

Bell flight fourteen you now can land
Seen you on Aldebaran, safe on the green desert sand
It's so very lonely, you're two thousand light years from home
It's so very lonely, you're two thousand light years from home
