Lyrics of "Sting — A Thousand Years"
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
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
This 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
