Christina Perri- A Thousand Years

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

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
Darling 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

I never thought that you would be the one to hold my heartBut you came around and you knocked me off the ground from the start

You put your arms around meAnd I believe that it's easier for you to let me goYou put your arms around me and I'm home

How many times will you let me change my mind and turn around?I can't decide if I'll let you save my life or if I'll drown

I hope that you see right through my wallsI hope that you catch me 'cause I'm already fallingI'll never let a love get so closeYou put your arms around me and I'm home

The world is coming down on me and I can't find a reason to be lovedI never wanna leave you but I can't make you bleed if I'm alone

You put your arms around meAnd I believe that it's easier for you to let me go...

I hope that you see right through my wallsI hope that you catch me, 'cause I'm already fallingI'll never let a love get so closeYou put your arms around me and I'm home

I tried my best to never let you in to see the truthAnd I've never opened upI've never truly loved 'til you put your arms around meAnd I believe that it's easier for you to let me go

I hope that you see right through my wallsI hope that you catch me, 'cause I'm already fallingI'll never let a love get so closeYou put your arms around me and I'm home
