A Thousand Days

 

     Ask me no questions and I'll tell you
     I'll tell you no lies
     When all is said and done
     Does it really matter who's wrong or right
     Don't ask me for a reason, I can't explain
     Why we hurt one another again and again
     As I lie bleeding here I still
     I still reach for you

     A thousand days
     Have passed away
     A thousand days
     Were captured in her eyes

     Your eyes are open now but you know
     It's still hard to see inside
     When action and intention
     Are two seperate things
     Now I somehow wish I could explain
     Why we hurt each other again and again
     Like someone on his dying breath
     I still reach for you

     A thousand days
     Have passed away
     A thousand days
     Were captured in her eyes

     Forever we've been
     Trapped by our hearts
     Trapped by our minds
     I'd like to leave
     I'd like to win at love

     But I just can't let it go
     And I just can't watch it slipping away
     And I just can't let it go
     And I just can't stand another minute

     Maybe now someday our shattered live
     Will mend themselves again
     But now a million miles away
     I still wish I could
     And though I somehow know, I can't explain
     Why we hurt one another again and again
     Like someone on his dying breath
     I still reach for you
