Danny Peck - For A Thousand Days lyrics

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
