8 minutes is how long the warmth of her takes to reach us
8 minutes to stop us dying in a frozen hell
She doesn’t know or care
She won’t always be there
And without her, we’d be gone too
But the chase for her goes on and on

You are 8 minutes from me know
8 minutes it would take me to be at your side
But you don’t know or care
So I’m here alone
And cold

8 minutes from the warmth I need
A 1000 nights from the sleep I need
A lifetime away from the love I need
