A thousand years, or just today.
I wonder how long I've loved you for
A thousand years, or just today
I wonder how long I've been searching for
A thousand years, or just today
How many continents I've had to walk
Seas too deep to swim
I've wondered how long, wondered how long
Or if we've always been
Your kisses feel polite
Your hands a polished leather
Your body a small mountain
A climb somewhat difficult to wether
But still sometimes I find myself
Dreaming of grey shimmers in your hair
Reminding myself, reminding myself
To "Stop noticing they're there."
I wonder how long I've loved you for
A thousand years, or just today
I wonder how long I've been searching for
A thousand years, or just today
How many continents I've had to walk
Seas too deep to swim
I've wondered how long, wondered how long
Or if we've always been
Life's hopes are fading fast
But once in a while there's that glimmer
Just a smile, a slight squint of the eye
A memory worthy to remember
As I trace the lines of your forehead...
I wonder how long I've loved you for
A thousand years, or just today
I wonder how long I've been searching for
A thousand years, or just today
How many continents I've had to walk
Seas too deep to swim
I've wondered how long, wondered how long
Or if we've always been
