lyrics

I’m writing a song for you
2082
I’m thinking about you
Thinking I’m looking forward to when you get here
Forward to when you live here
I can love you like I can’t love me
You’re so far away in the future
Living so far away in the future
Can you hear me?
Will you hear me?

Maybe just maybe 
My music will last on past when I’m gone away
Maybe, baby 
Don’t forget to laugh

Even though it might be hot where you are 
We might have burned it up
Might have melted the sky 
But the stars would be closer
You could wear a bodysuit
To keep out the ultraviolet rays
Everything’s a carcinogen
Everything’s a carcinogen darling but

I can love you like I can’t love me
You’re so far away in the future
Living so far away in the future
Can you feel me?
Will you feel me?

Maybe just maybe
The trees that we planted will have lasted
And maybe, baby
You’ll be climbing and laughing
Please laugh

Even though your food is a ghost of the past
We bred the flavor out in favor of shelf life and size
They say you eat with your eyes
You could carry a vial of salt
Salt is a flavor enhancer
but it's not a re-substancer
It can’t resurrect romance but darling

I can love you like I can’t love me
You’re so far away in the future
Living so far away in the future

Do you remember when we used to
Go outside for something to do
In 1992
Kids smoking after school
Joker bending the rules 
There was a war going on in the neighborhood
Boys against girls in the neighborhood

I can love you like I can’t love me
You’re so far away from the future 
Living so far away from the future 
I can love you like I can’t love me
