Lyrics

[01:29.22] A thousand years, a thousand more,
[01:31.78] A thousand times a million doors to eternity
[01:39.84] I may have lived a thousand lives, a thousand times
[01:43.36] An endless turning stairway climbs
[01:46.61] To a tower of souls
[01:52.14] If it takes another thousand years, a thousand wars,
[01:55.51] The towers rise to numberless floors in space
[02:03.81] I could shed another million tears, a million breaths,
[02:07.44] A million names but only one truth to face
[02:22.24] A million roads, a million fears
[02:24.71] A million suns, ten million years of uncertainty
[02:32.82] I could speak a million lies, a million songs,
[02:36.34] A million rights, a million wrongs in this balance of time
[02:44.42] But if there was a single truth, a single light
[02:47.97] A single thought, a singular touch of grace
[02:56.29] Then following this single point , this single flame,
[02:59.83] The single haunted memory of your face
[03:08.70] I still love you
[03:20.06] I still want you
[03:32.11] A thousand times the mysteries unfold themselves
[03:36.53] Like galaxies in my head
[03:56.23] I may be numberless, I may be innocent
[04:01.76] I may know many things, I may be ignorant
[04:07.73] Or I could ride with kings and conquer many lands
[04:13.44] Or win this world at cards and let it slip my hands
[04:19.41] I could be cannon food, destroyed a thousand times
[04:25.17] Reborn as fortunes child to judge anothers crimes
[04:31.08] Or wear this pilgrims cloak, or be a common thief
[04:36.75] Ive kept this single faith, I have but one belief
[04:42.04] I still love you
[04:53.88] I still want you
[05:05.99] A thousand times the mysteries unfold themselves
[05:10.07] Like galaxies in my head
[05:18.06] On and on the mysteries unwind themselves
[05:21.89] Eternities still unsaid
