A Thousand Years

I've waited a thousand years

But it's still not enough

I want to retrace all my steps again

To find out where we grew up

Where we grew up

Tell me, is this all a dream?

Tell me it was all a dream

Just wake me if I fall asleep

'Cause I'll never know if I'm sleepwalking

Time's a virtue we don't know

A fleeting moment like falling snow

A drop in an ocean that overflows

I've waited a thousand years

But it's still not enough

I want to retrace all my steps again

To find out where we grew up

They say this story is never ending

But we've only just begun

And this journey is far from done

Sweet child, you'll melt in the sun

In this crescent wax ship the moonlight carries on

Time's a virtue we don't know

A fleeting moment like falling snow

A drop in an ocean that overflows

I've waited a thousand years

But it's still not enough

I want to retrace all my steps again

To find out where we grew up

They say this story is never ending

But it's only just begun

We just begun to witness the fragile nature in our lives

A sunset getting dimmer with the rising of the tide

We're distant, we cut the strings that tie and bind

Our porcelain bodies get left behind

And every time that you look back

You waste the moment we could have had

We waste the moment we could have had

I've waited a thousand years

But it's still not enough

I want to find the pages left undone

And tie all the loose ends up

No, this story isn't over

It's only just begun
