A thousand years - Sting

 

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
