James, Colin - 40 Light Years Lyrics
Put your feet on the dashboard baby take a ride and c'mon
There's nothing left to lose but the moon now the money's all gone
And when you get back
You get back down
Wait all night for you to come around
You can come a little closer but you're 40 light years away
What you gonna do honey now that the sun's gone down
Trying to find love when you're living in a one-horse town
I've had the blues
For 14 days
Cause there's a hole in the sky and it's here to stay
I'd like to get to know you but you're 40 light years away
Want to get to know you but you're 40 light years away
Buffalo girls, blind Willie burn the dance floor down
Way down...
Well it's a long dark road baby where you been?
I keep knocking but I can't come in
Came to get you home but you're 40 light years away
I need to get you back but you're 40 light years away
I want to get to know you but you're 40 light years away
I need to get to know you but you're 40 light years away

James, Colin 40 Light Years Comments
His tone sounds a little like Mark Knopfler's here.
More than 'a little' I'd say - inspired by 'Down to the waterline' perhaps?
this video kinda looks like colton ford lol
but hes older and younger looking
https://youtu.be/c9mNfhWn0CY?t=52

Saw you at music fest yesterday :) you were awesome! My friend helped you park where you needed and was bragging, have a great day!
Great work Colin Great song
One of the best live shows I've ever seen. The man can make guitars sing like few others can.
Great show in Halifax last night. What a tight band.
Saw his show friday night in Quebec city.....
He just gets better and better....problem with a pedal thing and he was without his guitar for a song or so.....it just showed up what I have always thought....his voice is just awesome and guitar or no guitar - stage presence and craft....amid a few laughs....goes down as my favorite......lol.... e.
Well I took my wife last night to see one Mr Colin James April 2nd /19 and what a show wow. As always the music left me breathless, what a show man from start to finish, The sound was great keep doing what you do...
I saw Colin James in concert for the 4th timet in Winnipeg March 30, 2019 - LOVE HIM!
oh oh colin... yer an ole man now... looks done run right on out the winder... lol.. bet cha don't get the 2 and 3 sums anymores huh? lol
Sounding good, looking good, awesome as always.
Also notice during the solo you can see the pickup selector change positions between different camera angles lol
Reminds me of the newer Clapton material
Bravo, teacher !!!
He is a treasure. Regina Rocks
I found this song by accident and WOW what a Great tune so I bought the CD and guess what the CD was just as Awesome !!
Smooooth …..
Who's that harp player ? Damn
That is Tulsa Sound!
I am hearing strong elements of JJ Cale and his proteges Clapton and Knopfler in this great piece of music. Colin has aged magnificently. Time to listen to his latest stuff.
Cool guitar!
quite good...j j cale, clapton, knopfler....
awesome ! ! ! thxxxx !
Steve Marriner on Harp....nice!
Loving the whole album. Been driving around Snowdonia for the last few days with it on repeat. Great stuff!
That is one of the most boring songs about nothing that I had ever had to hear, when it poped up as an advert in Janis Joplin mix I had on. This sound even worse in comparison.
WTF makes you think that you're interesting? You are trite and impolite. Take a hike, mtherfker ;)
This song very softly kicks hard ass. Move along
My ears like a lot. Nice , dancing blues. :)
Marry me
Sounds like a collaboration between Dire Straits and the Nighthawks! Awesome!Can't wait to check out more of Colin James.
That would be absolutely wicked if Mark Knopfler & James would Collaborate together..What would say to that??
When you do check out more of Colin James, I can promise you that you won't be disappointed. He's a hidden Canadian gem, and a criminally under-rated talent.
*SWEET ...*
served this fellow a burger at a local greasy spoon I was working at in the early 90s. Blues power house from way back, he was touring the Maritimes university set, came in the restaurant and asked me, what town am I in? He put in his road time for sure. A great guitarist!
I usually don't appreciate ads, but this came up and I'm intruiged! :)
AWESOME!! WOW NICE SLIVER FOX.........I"D MEET YOU 40 LIGHT YEARS OR NOT !!!! X
Nice work Colin, loving the new music, thanks for continuing the journey.
THIS CAUGHT MY EAR, CATCHY TUNE!!!!......X

OMG I'm in love again!!!! Wow is right!!!!!!
Looking like a silver fox Colin! Nice addition with Jesse Winchester and Steve Mariner in there! Love this sound!
