A Thousand Years Lyrics-by Christina Perri

(Verse 1) 
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 
Darlin' don't be afraid 
I have loved you for a 
Thousand years
I'll love you for a 
Thousand more 

(Verse 2) 
Time stands still 
Beauty I know 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 
Darlin' don't be afraid 
I have loved you for a 
Thousand years 
I'll love you for a 
Thousand more 

And 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 
Darlin' don't be afraid, 
I have loved you for a 
Thousand years 
I'll love you for a 
Thousand more 

And 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
