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 i 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, the 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 till you love me
