1000 Years

If I must wait 1000 years

If I must cry a thousand tears

Then I would rather be alone

If I must live a thousand lives

If I must die a thousand times

Then I would rather be alone

Than try to find somebody new

Somebody new that isn't you

You know I really wouldn't want to anyway

So I will wait 1000 years

And I will cry a thousand tears

For you

If every moment I'm awake

Is just an all consuming ache

I'll have to face it on my own

Every night when I'm asleep

I know my, my dreams are incomplete

Because I'm dreaming I'm alone

I'll never dream of someone new

Of someone new that isn't you

You know I really wouldn't want to anyway

So I will wait 1000 years

And I will cry a thousand tears

For you

I just want to see my baby girl get fully grown

I'll never tell her who I really am or let her know

That she's my own

I'll let you tell her that some other man's her daddy

I'll let you tell her that some other man's her daddy

If I must let you chip away

A little piece of me each day

I'd gladly give my broken heart

'Cause every piece of me you take

I know you're usin' it to make

Your greatest work of art

I'll never find somebody new

Somebody new that isn't you

You know I really wouldn't want to anyway

So I will wait 1000 years

And I will cry a thousand tears

For you

So I will wait 1000 years

And I will cry a thousand tears

For you
