Thousand Years (Bill Laswell remix) Lyrics & Tabs by Sting
Thousand Years (Bill Laswell remix)
guitar chords lyrics
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. For just 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
and 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, re-born as fortunes child to judge anothers crimes
or wear this pilgrims 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
or wear this pilgrims 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
