1000 Years

It's been so long

Since you were by side.
If I whistled,
Would you come running?

You always said,
You would take me far away
Where we could be together

But now you're gone.

If I cried for a thousand years
Would you come soaring back into my arms?

If I shed one thousand tears
Would time stop
so you could return to me?

Because I'm crying now,
But no one's here.

I begged you not to go
But you just said,
" Don't cry, I'll be back."

I've waited for 1000 years
And I've kept back the tears
But I've waited to long,

When will you come back?

If I cried for a thousand years
Would you cradle me in your arms?

If I shed one thousand tears
Would you turn back,
And shine you're light on me?

Because I'm waiting here,
But you're not back

And if cried for a thousand years
Would you come soaring back into my arms?

If I shed one thousand tears
Would you turn back
And shine your light on me?

I'll be waiting here
I'll love you forever
