Lyrics
THOUSAND YEARS
Some people think we were here before
Carried out the back
Crawled through the front door
Looking for the facts
That support the signs
Maybe that explains
Why love is blind
Could there be old souls
You’ve heard it said
There’s more to life
Than living till you’re dead
The power of love can turn to dust
I’m sure it’s there still waiting for us
I feel I’ve known you
And loved you for
A thousand years
I’ve been looking for you all my life
Never had a face in mind
It felt like “Oh no!”
Could she be a “no show”
To lose so much time
Would be a crime
Could she be a redhead
White or black
Riding a bike or a Cadillac
Could she have green eyes
Too young or old
But then I saw you
And I knew your soul
I feel I’ve known you
And loved you for
A thousand years
Before we go girl
We should make a pact
A trigger word so
We’ll known when we’re back
Let’s pick a town
Or a quiet park
We’ll know our souls
By the beat of our hearts
