A Thousand Days lyrics

[Verse 1]

Ask me no questions and I'll tell you

I'll tell you no lies, when all is said and done

Does it really matter who's wrong or right?

Don't ask me for a reason, I can't explain

Why hurt one other again and again

See while I'm bleeding I still, still reach for you

[Chorus]

Thousand days, thousand days

Have passed away

Thousand days, thousand days

Were captured in her eyes

[Verse 2]

Your eyes are open now but you know

It's still hard to see inside

When the action and the intention are two separated things

Now I somehow wish I could explain

Why we hurt one another again and again

Like someone's dying breath I still, still reach for you

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]

Forever we've been

Trapped by our hearts

Trapped by our minds

So I'd like to leave

I'd like to win at love

But I just can't let it go

And I just can't watch it slipping away

And I just can't let it go

And I just can't stand another minute

May be now someday our shattered lives

Will mend themselves again

Every now a million miles away, I still reach for you

And though I somehow know, I can't explain

Why we hurt one other again and again

Like someone's dying breath I still, still reach for you

[Chorus]

Thousand days, thousand days

Aaa, aaa, ooo, aaa

Thousand days, thousand days
