"A Thousand Years" lyrics

I was a kid looking for love, full of hope inside
But time was never kind to me, my heart grew cold as ice
All out of luck, thought I was stuck, alone for all my life
But I was proven wrong the moment I looked in your eyes

It's true
Until I'm in the grave
Darling, I'll love you

For a thousand years, dear
Time is nothing when I'm here with you, ooh
All my fears, tears
Those memories, they disappear with you, ooh
Till I turn into dust, I'll carry this love
My dear
For a thousand years

Summer is soon, something will bloom, like a lotus flower
The bluest moon will soon be sun and turn to golden hour
Hours and days, lost in your gaze, losing track of time
Learning how to slow it down, appreciate our lives

Just know
Until I'm in the grave
Darling, I'll love you

For a thousand years, dear
Time is nothing when I'm here with you, ooh
All my fears, tears
Those memories, they disappear with you, ooh
Till I turn into dust, I'll carry this love
My dear
For a thousand years

Set it all on fire, let it burn up brighter
Love is a flame, and it's dancing away to David playing on the lyre
Set it all on fire, let the smoke go higher
'Cause darling, I'll love you

For a thousand years, dear
Time is nothing when I'm here with you, ooh
All my fears, tears
Those memories, they disappear with you, ooh
Till the air leaves my lungs
With each breath, I'll hold you near
Till I turn into dust
I'll carry this love, my dear
For a thousand years
