A thousand years

[ti:A thousand years] [ar:sting] [al:357224] [by:季风网-【http://www.ip21.cn】] [offset:0] A thousand years a thousand more A thousand times a million doors to eternity I may have lived a thousand lives a thousand times An endless turning stairway climbs To a tower of souls If it takes another thousand years a thousand wars The towers rise to numberless floors in space I could shed another million tears a million breaths A million names but only one truth to face A million roads a million fears A million suns ten million years of uncertainty I could speak a million lies a million songs A million rights a million wrongs in this balance of time But if there was a single truth a single light A single thought a singular touch of grace Then following this single point this single flame The single haunted memory of your face I still love you I still want you A thousand times the mysteries unfold themselves Like galaxies in my head I may be numberless I may be innocent I may know many things I may be ignorant Or I could ride with kings and conquer many lands Or win this world at cards and let it slip my hands I could be cannon food destroyed a thousand times Reborn as fortune's child to judge another's crimes Or wear this pilgrim's cloak or be a common thief I've kept this single faith I have but one belief I still love you I still want you A thousand times the mysteries unfold themselves Like galaxies in my head On and on the mysteries unwind themselves Eternities still unsaid Till you love me
