Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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 turnin' stairway climbs to a tower of souls
[Verse 2]
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
[Verse 3]
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 the balance of time
[Verse 4]
But if there was a single truth, a single light
A singe thought, a singular touch of grace
Then followin' this single point, this single flame
This single haunted memory of your face
[Verse 5]
I still love you
I still want you
A thousand times the mysteries unfold themselves
Like galaxies in my head
[Verse 6]
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
[Verse 7]
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
[Verse 8]
I still love you
I still want you
A thousand times the mysteries unfold themselves
Like galaxies in my head
[Verse 9]
On and on the mysteries unwind themselves
Eternities still unsaid
Till you
Love me
