A Thousand Years, Pt. 2

(from “The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2” soundtrack)

[Christina Perri:]
The day we met
Frozen I held my breath
Right from the start
I knew that I’d found a home for my heart
…beats fast
Colors and promises
How to be brave?
How can I love when I’m afraid to fall?
But watching you stand alone
All of my doubt suddenly goes away somehow

[Christina Perri and Steve Kazee:]
One step closer

[Christina Perri:]
I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling don’t be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I’ll love you for a thousand more

[Steve Kazee:]
Time stands still
Beauty in all she is
I will be brave
I will not let anything take away
What’s standing in front of me
Every breath
Every hour has come to this

[Christina Perri and Steve Kazee:]
One step closer

I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling don’t be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I’ll love you for a thousand more

And all along I believed I would find you
Time has brought your heart to me
I have loved you for a thousand years
I’ll love you for a thousand more

I’ll love you for a thousand more

One step closer

[Christina Perri:]
I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling don’t be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I’ll love you for a thousand more

[Christina Perri and Steve Kazee:]
And all along I believed I would find you
Time has brought your heart to me
I have loved you for a thousand years
I’ll love you for a thousand more
