Lyrics
A Thousand Lifetimes
A thousand ships will sail from these shores,
A thousand plows will till this fertile soil,
A thousand lips will open up and sing:
Here it is, take the ring.
A thousand chances to learn your lessons well,
A thousand times you’ll find true love again,
Here it is, cast your spell.
[ch]
In a thousand lifetimes, there’s no one quite like this,
With a thousand soulmates, there’s only one you’ll miss
Ten thousand lovers, so many more you’ve kissed.
Only one, only one, that you will miss.
In a thousand journeys, to the spirit world,
A thousand times, your body will go cold,
through all the cycles of life and death reborn,
its the flame of love that keeps you warm
In a thousand lifetimes, there’s no one quite like this,
With a thousand soulmates, there’s only one you’ll miss
Ten thousand lovers, so many more you’ve kissed.
Only one, only one, that you will miss.
[repeat chorus]
