A thousand years, a thousand more,
  A thousand times a million doors to eternity
  I may have lived a thousand lives, a thousand times
  An endless turning stairway climbs
  To a tower of souls
  If it takes another thousand years, a thousand wars,
  The towers rise to numberless floors in space
  I could shed another million tears, a million breaths,
  A million names but only one truth to face
  
  A million roads, a million fears
  A million suns, ten million years of uncertainty
  I could speak a million lies, a million songs,
  A million rights, a million wrongs in this balance of time
  But if there was a single truth, a single light
  A single thought, a singular touch of grace
  Then following this single point , this single flame,
  The single haunted memory of your face
  
  I still love you
  I still want you
  A thousand times the mysteries unfold themselves
  Like galaxies in my head
  
  I may be numberless, I may be innocent
  I may know many things, I may be ignorant
  Or I could ride with kings and conquer many lands
  Or win this world at cards and let it slip my hands
  I could be cannon food, destroyed a thousand times
  Reborn as fortune's child to judge another's crimes
  Or wear this pilgrim's cloak, or be a common thief
  I've kept this single faith, I have but one belief
  
  I still love you
  I still want you
  A thousand times the mysteries unfold themselves
  Like galaxies in my head
  On and on the mysteries unwind themselves
  Eternities still unsaid
  'Til you love me
