Thousand Year Prayer

Here we all are at the end of the century of beauty lost

We greedily ate what you gave us, the rest we tossed

We've trapped all your rivers, paved every pass

Pulled at your sky 'til we caused it to rip

♪

But you've got Jimi Hendrix, so let's call it an even split

I've met a girl who has turned my whole world upside down

The stars I once stretched for, now litter the ground

I am cursed by too little, or is it too much belief

In the strength of another man's words

But I've got a girl, thank you Lord

♪

♪

Here we all are at the start of another thousand years

All those love stories, yet to be told

Ours is this river asleep at our feet

Blessed by this wet autumn day

Here we all are
