A Thousand Years (Nitin Sawhney Mix)

A Thousand Years (Nitin Sawhney Mix) - Sting

Written by：Sting/Kipper

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

Takes another thousand years a thousand wars

The towers rise to numberless floors in space

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

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 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

I still love you

I still want you

I still love you

I still want you
