a thousand years

heart beats fast
colors and prommisses
how to be brave
how can i love when i'm afraid to fall?
but watching you stand alone
all of my doubt suddenly goes away somehow
one step closer
i have died every day waiting for you
darling don't be afraid
i have loved you for a thousand years
i'll love you for a thousand more
time stands still
beauty in all she is
i will be brave
i will not let anything take away
what's standing in front of me
every breath
every hour has come to this
one step closer
and all along i believed i would find you
time has brought your heart to me,,,
