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, 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,

This 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 hand.

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 fortunes 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 these mysteries unfold themselves

Like galaxies in my mind,

On and on the mysteries unwind themselves.

Eternities Still unsaid

'Til you love me'
