A Thousand Years Lyrics

What do I have to do

To make you see

That I am in love with you

To make you love me

There's nothing that I wouldn't do

What do I have to say

To let you know

That you are my treasure, babe

With a heart of gold

There's so much that I wanna say

I know I've been impatient

Want instant gratification

But only for you, my dear

I would wait a thousand years

What am I supposed to think

When you won't talk

I'm waiting for the phone to ring

And I know you're up

I can see your light is on

How am I supposed to feel

When you go dark

Insecurities creeping in

To my restless heart

I can only sleep for so long

I know I've been impatient

Want instant gratification

But only for you, my dear

I would wait a thousand years

Never felt like this before

You always leave me wanting more

And like a dolphin on the shore

I'm stranded here

You say you need a little more time

To work it all out in your mind

Maybe someday you'll be mine

Where do I have to go

To get to you

I'd choose hell over heaven

Just to be with you

Cause heaven isn't heaven without you

I know I've been impatient

Want instant gratification

But only for you, my dear

I would wait a thousand years

Yeah only for you, my dear

I would wait a thousand years

As long as it takes

I will wait

As long as it takes

I will wait

As long as it takes

I will wait
