Thousand Days

Written by

Stevie Nicks.

The closest you've ever come to me

Was to help me up the stairs

You stood in the middle of the stairway

You nearly dragged me up the stairs "You've been asleep." "Well, I've been asleep for how long?" she says "Why do you question me?"

He says, "You never cared about time before, my friend."

Seems like a thousand days since you've been gone...

Seems like a thousand days since you've been gone...

You're not my friend, you're not my love

And this is something that we really don't discuss

If there is no time, and there is no place.

And, if there was, well, you'd never leave a trace

And as all arch angels do to you

And as all arch enemies will finally do to you, too

Well, I found you

Quiet now, songbird, just for one night

Well, I know that you love to sing

And, oh baby, well,

I know that you love to write

You live by the light of the moon and

I live by light of desire

Ooh, such words to her over the phone "Just how many people are there with you now"

Well, I can see the trouble

The sun is here today and

I requested a storm

But I like some kind of

TIME/LIFE edition,

Tradition, competition...

Being the only thing that

I really have to remember

The great singers and the great players

And if the sun warms up the rain,

And the rain puts out the sun

Why does the greatest love become the greatest pain?

So, where are you?

Sometimes

I hear you crying and

I wake up, and still

I wake up crying

Well, he is on my mind..he's everywhere

And if he followed me home, will the sound of both of our voices simply disappear?

Well, I miss you now...

He laughs

He has an attitude so

I have an attitude, too

He knocks on the door next to the courtyard

Well, he frightens me so,

I let him in

But I'm already, well,

I'm already screaming

How can the greatest love come from the greatest pain?
