A thousand years is a long, long time

Even for a star up in the sky

I could count the tears and the long, long nights

But I′d rather just remember how you smiled

In a thousand years

I know that our love will still be here

So close your eyes, my dear

Knowing that our love is going to last one thousand years

The time flies by in a blinking eye

No matter how we try to make it last

But if souls are strong they'll go on and on

And we will hardly know the time has passed

In a thousand years

I know that our love will still be here

So close your eyes, my dear

Knowing that our love is going to last one thousand years

We′ll disappear if we can keep each other here

Inside our hearts

We will never be apart, so don't you fear

Dry your tears

In a thousand years

I know that our love will still be here

In a thousand years, oh

So close your eyes, my dear

Knowing that our love is going to last one thousand years
