A THOUSAND YEARS

By Lou Porzilli

Ó 1999

 

Billy:

Come closer, come closer, come closer.

Tahla:

No! Go away.

Billy:

There are times I wonder why.

Tahla:

And there are times I feel like cryin’.

Billy & Tahla:

There are times I don’t know

What is wrong or what is right.

And this feeling in my heart, is just stage-fright?

And when will I finally spend the night, tonight, tonight.

Billy (1st time):

Tahla( 2nd time):

A thousand or more years ago, I knew you when

A thousand or more years ago, you said to call, to call me friend.

You know it seems like yesterday you said goodbye

But now I know just what you said wasn’t a lie.

Don’t you know the times are always changing?

Can’t you see the truth is in my eyes?

There are times we’ll need some rearranging.

Billy & Tahla:

A thousand or more years ago

A thousand or more tears ago
