1
A thousand years, a thousand more,
2
A thousand times a million doors to eternity
3
I may have lived a thousand lives, a thousand times
4
An endless turning stairway climbs
5
To a tower of souls
6
If it takes another thousand years, a thousand wars,
7
The towers rise to numberless floors in space
8
I could she'd another million tears, a million breaths,
9
A million names but only one truth to face
10
A million roads, a million fears
11
A million suns, ten million years of uncertainty
12
I could speak a million lies, a million songs,
13
A million rights, a million wrongs in this balance of time
14
But if there was a single truth, a single light
15
A single thought, a singular touch of grace
16
Then following this single point, this single flame,
17
The single haunted memory of your face
18
I still love you
19
I still want you
20
A thousand times the mysteries unfold themselves
21
Like galaxies in my head
22
I may be numberless, I may be innocent
23
I may know many things, I may be ignorant
24
Or I could ride with kings and conquer many lands
25
Or win this world at cards and let it slip my hands
26
I could be cannon food, destroyed a thousand times
27
Reborn as fortune's child to judge another's crimes
28
Or wear this pilgrim's cloak, or be a common thief
29
I've kept this single faith, I have but one belief
30
I still love you
31
I still want you
32
A thousand times the mysteries unfold themselves
33
Like galaxies in my head
34
On and on the mysteries unwind themselves
35
Eternities still unsaid
36
'Til you love me
