Lifespan of Light

There's proberly a couple of questions here, but my main one:

When you travel at lightspeed, time stops right? So why do lightwaves weaken over distance? Shouldn't the light be as bright as when it was emitted - regardless of distance travelled - because no time has passed for the light to be degraded during its travel (or whatever the technical term is)

take it easy on me guys!
