A Thousand Years
Steve Kazee Lyrics

The day we met
I remember the exact moment we crossed paths for the first time and it has been with me ever since.

Frozen I held my breath
I was so captivated by you, that everything around me became quiet and I was left breathless.

Right from the start
I knew at that moment that there was something special about you and I wanted to pursue this feeling.

I knew that I'd found a home for my heart
I had been searching for someone to call my own and from that moment on, I knew you were the one I had been waiting for.

Beats fast
My heart starts racing every time I am near you.

Colors and promises
I see a bright future with you and I am filled with hope and excitement about what is to come.

How to be brave?
I am afraid of the vulnerability and uncertainty that comes with love. I need to find the courage to take a chance on us.

How can I love when I'm afraid to fall
I am scared of getting hurt, but I don't want that fear to hold me back from experiencing love. I want to overcome it with you.

But watching you stand alone?
Seeing you standing alone reminds me of how much I need you by my side. You are my rock, my support system through everything.

All of my doubt suddenly goes away somehow
When I'm with you, all my uncertainties disappear and I feel at peace.

One step closer
Every moment that we spend together brings us closer to a love that will last a lifetime.

I have died everyday waiting for you
Without you in my life, I felt like a part of me was missing. It was a painful existence, but I knew that it would be worth it when I finally found you.

Darling don't be afraid I have loved you
I want you to know that my love for you is unconditional and unwavering. You can always count on me.

For a thousand years
My love for you will last for an eternity. It is not bound by time or space.

Time stands still
When I'm with you, everything else fades away and it's just us in the moment together. Time seems to stop and I'm lost in your presence.

Beauty in all she is
You have the most amazing qualities that shine through everything you do. I am in awe of your beauty, inside and out.

I will be brave
I want to be brave for you and take all the risks that come with love because you are worth it.

I will not let anything take away
I will fight for us and make sure that nothing comes between us. This love is too important to let slip away.

What's standing in front of me
It's you. The love of my life is right in front of me and I am so grateful for that.

Every breath
Every moment with you, every breath I take, is a gift that I will cherish forever.

Every hour has come to this
Every moment that has led us to this point, every obstacle we've overcome, has brought us to the love that we share today.

And all along I believed I would find you
I held onto the hope that one day I would meet the person who would make everything else in my life make sense. That person is you.

Time has brought your heart to me
All the time spent waiting, searching, and hoping for the right person was worth it because it led me to you.

I have loved you for a thousand years
My love for you has existed beyond time, beyond space. Since the beginning of time itself, I have loved you and I always will.

I'll love you for a thousand more
Our love story isn't over just because we've come this far. I promise to love you with the same intensity and passion for a thousand more years to come.
