Track 2 from Still Be Love In The World

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
'Til you love me

  • needs more cowbell

  • Ha, one can pick out Nitin's production anywhere...lush stings, panned delayed vocals, echos, EQed instruments, slick vocal harmony, and BIG sound. love it, one of the best all rounders. dig sting too!!

  • Great version

  • I agree, cowbells forever. I got the album just for this.

  • I got a fever and the only cure is more cowbell. :)

  • love this version... I wish I had a cowbell like the one here

  • The original song of 'A Thousand Years' is my best song ever in the last 9 years... and this other version of it is Really refreshing... its COOL !! When was this out anyway?? thanks for posting this :^)
