Light is Faster Than Sound
Words and music by Brian May, Frank Musker and Elizabeth Lamers
I'm just the pieces of the man I used to be
Too many bitter tears are raining down on me
I'm far away from home
And I've been facing this alone
For much too long
I feel like no-one ever told the truth to me
About growing up and what a struggle it would be
In me tangled state of mind
I've been looking back to find
Where I went wrong
Too much love will kill you
If you can't make up your mind
Torn between the lover
And the love you leave behind
You're headed for disaster
'cos yo
I'm just the pieces of the man I used to be
Too many bitter tears are raining down on me
I'm far away from home
And I've been facing this alone
For much too long
I feel like no-one ever told the truth to me
About growing up and what a struggle it would be
In me tangled state of mind
I've been looking back to find
Where I went wrong
Too much love will kill you
If you can't make up your mind
Torn between the lover
And the love you leave behind
You're headed for disaster
'cos yo
Genevieve
(the pilot of your thighs)
Genevieve, Genevieve
Dreaming of those castles in the sky
Genevieve, Genevieve
And clocks that couldn't wait to tell the time
That's why I'm the pilot of your thighs
The one who holds your hand
When you stare in those canals
The pilot of your thighs
Genevieve, Genevieve
Horoscopes were written in the snow
Genevieve, Genevieve
Sometimes the sun just gets too close
That's why I'm the pilot of your thighs
The one who holds your hand
When you stare in those canals
The pilot of your thighs
