A Thousand Years Lyrics

You were right, you were bigger than me
I no longer see the sun, you have eclipsed it
When you left you reflected back the light
The glow of a million creatures with hope burning bright

I will wait for you a thousand years
You retrograde like planets slipping backwards
I will wait for you a thousand more
One thousand promises, one thousand last goodbyes

You were right, you were better than me
I've broken all my mirrors so you can't see what you've done to me
I am yours forevermore

I will wait for you a thousand years
A thousand promises, one thousand last goodbyes
I will wait for you a thousand more
You retrograde like planets slipping backwards, slipping backwards

You were right
You were right
You were right
You were right

I will wait for you a thousand years
You retrograde like planets slipping backwards
I will wait for you a thousand more
One thousand promises, one thousand last goodbyes
A thousand last goodbyes

You were right
You were right
