Christina Perri – A Thousand Years (from The Twilight Saga) Lyrics
Heart beats fast, colors and promises
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
[Chorus:]
I have died everyday 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
[Chorus:]
I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling, don’t be afraid, I have loved you
For a thousand years
I’ll love you for a thousand more
All along I believed I would find you
Time has brought your heart to me
I have loved you for a thousand years
I’ll love you for a thousand more
One step closer, one step closer
[Chorus:]
I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling, don’t be afraid, I have loved you
For a thousand years
I’ll love you for a thousand more
All along I believed I would find you
Time has brought your heart to me
I have loved you for a thousand years
I’ll love you for a thousand more
Heart beats fast, colors and promises
