A Thousand Years
Christina Perri


Heart beats fast
Colors and promises
How to be brave
How can I love
When I'm afraid to fall
But watching you stand alone
All of my doubt
Suddenly goes away somehow

One step closer

I have died everyday
Waiting for you
Darling don't be afraid
I have loved you for a
Thousand years
I love you for a
Thousand more

Time stands still
Beauty in all she is
I will be brave
I will not let anything
Take away
What's standing in front of me
Every breath
Every hour has come to this

One step closer

I have died everyday
Waiting for you
Darling don't be afraid
I have loved you for a
Thousand years
I'll love you for a
Thousand more

And all along I believed
I would find you
Time has brought
Your heart to me
I have loved you for a
Thousand years
I'll love you for a
Thousand more

One step closer

One step closer

I have died everyday
Waiting for you
Darling don't be afraid
I have loved you for a
Thousand years
I'll love you for a
Thousand more

And all along I believed
I would find you
Time has brought
Your heart to me
I have loved you for a
Thousand years
I'll love you for a
Thousand more
