A Thousand Lives

A thousand lives I've lived to be here with you
A hundred lives I've died to see you
and now as I am closer (I am closer)
I feel restless of watching you
and now as I'm deeper
I feel warmer to be with you

You, break my fall
every time I feel alone
yeah you, hold me closer
every time I feel cold

And now I can't escape the memories of you
and now I can't forget the times I spent without you

A thousand lives I've lived to be here with you
A hundred lives I've died to see you
and now as I am closer (I am closer)
I feel restless of watching you
and now as I'm deeper
I feel warmer to be with you

I never thought that I would be in love
I never thought that I would need you no
I never thought that I would die for you
I never thought that I would want you

You, break my fall
every time I feel alone
yeah you, hold me closer
every time I feel cold
