Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Already lost beside the line
The mirror is your eye on mine
The mirror is your eye on mine
[Verse 2]
Trying hard to figure it out of here
The center is a hole in the sphere
The center is a hole in the sphere
[Verse 3]
Say your name, I hope to get it right
You come into my room every night
You come into my room every night
[Chorus]
A thousand years or more
And I've never seen this face
Never heard this voice before
[Verse 4]
The honey hills and the frosted sun
Bluer than the ocean
Bluer than the ocean
[Verse 5]
Why do leaves turn yellow and fall?
And who absorbs it all?
Who absorbs it all?
[Verse 6]
Holding so near, standing so far
How slow and how fast you are
How slow and how fast you are
[Chorus]
A thousand years or more
And I've never seen this face
Never heard this voice before
[Verse 7]
Though my love is riding blind
It can always read my mind
It can always read my mind
[Verse 8]
Shadows shatter at the edges of a smile
We've been down here for a while
We've been down here
[Chorus]
A thousand years or more
And I've never seen this face
Never heard this voice before
