How can this be
Why does the light
Shine on your face just right
Why are your eyes still laughing for me
Your closet's full
So why don't you let go everything
Darlin' these songs I sing
Speak to a love that's living inside
For a thousand days and nights
I stood outside your door
Watchin' the shades pull down
Til I couldn't watch no more
Runnin' under a willow tree
That followed me when the moon was hidin'
And only light I saw
Was the candle burnin' by your bed
So how can this be
Why does the wind
Carry the scent of your skin
Tell me how did this ever begin
For a thousand days and nights
For a thousand days
For a thousand days and nights
For a thousand days
For a thousand days and nights
I waited on the words
Silence hung around my head
Cryin' like a flock of birds
Waitin' for the sweetest dream
That always left me hungry
Lookin' back I guess it seems
You never really loved me
Love like wine
Sweeter in time
It's a love so fine
Gonna lose my mind
Cuz I'm still so blind in love
It makes no sense
Still somehow I believe
Even a heart in chains
Still holds onto the love that remains
For a thousand days and nights
For a thousand days
For a thousand days and nights
For a thousand days
For a thousand days and nights
For a thousand days
Love like wine
Sweeter in time
It's a love so fine
Gonna lose my mind
Cuz I'm still so blind in love
How can this be
Why does the light
