Million Years

AlphabetLyrics.com


Have I been here before?
Maybe it was a million years ago
And I'd stop every war
Even if it takes a million years
And how long has the sun been here?
Has it been a million years?
I feel the same as the day I met you
A million years ago.

In my car
Cut down ventura boulevard
Tryin' to get nowhere
Gettin' lost
I hit the coastline and the water
Into the ocean, honey.

I know I'll find you there
Even if it takes a million years
With flowers in your hair
Even if it takes a million years
Our street is on no map
And I don't know why it disappeared
But I'll carry you on my back
Even if it takes, even if it takes a million years.

And I know love finds a way to take a toll on you
Light has a hard time gettin' hold of you
But we stopped time once in a photograph
And I keep it in my pocket.

I know I'll find you there (I know I'll find you there)
Even if it takes a million years
With flowers in your hair (with flowers in your hair)
Even if it takes a million years
Our street is on no map (our street is on no map)
And I don't know why it disappeared
But I'll carry you on my back (but I'll carry you on my back)
Even if it takes, even if it takes a million years.

Sometimes, I sit around and think about
The times we used to run around the city with nothin' much to do
Sometimes, I lie around and think about
What life would be like if I was still sleeping in a bed and next to you
I'm not sure I'm meant to love 'cause when I try to love someone
I could never find a way to also love myself
Sometimes, when I go out
I think I see you in the crowd but
I'm not ready for that conversation in the state I'm in.

I know I'll find you there (you know I'll find you there)
Even if it takes a million years
With flowers in your hair (with flowers in your hair)
Even if it takes a million years (slow down, you'll miss the moment that our lives could intertwine)
Our street is on no map
And I don't know why it disappeared
But I'll carry you on my back (we don't have to sacrifice)
Even if it takes, even if it takes a million years
I'm yours eternally under these eternal blue skies
Maybe we made it just in time?
