1000 Times

AlphabetLyrics.com


Back of the room
Looking at you
Counting the steps
Between us.

A hundred and five
Little blades in a line
From your skin to mine
And I feel it.

Eyes on the ground
But I can't look up now
Don't wanna give it away
My secret.

In another life,
My teeth and tongue
Would speak aloud what until now
I've only sung.

Cause I would die to make you mine
Bleed me dry each and every time
I don't mind, no I don't mind it
I would come back 1000 times.

You can make me wait forever
Push me away and tell me never
I don't mind, no I don't mind it
I would come back 1000 times
Hey hey...

Kiss me goodnight
Like a good friend might
I'll do the same
But won't mean it.

Cause love is a cage
These words on a page
Carry the pain
They don't free it.

In another life
I wouldn't need to
Console myself
As I resign to release you.

Cause I would die to make you mine
Bleed me dry each and every time
I don't mind, no I don't mind it
I would come back 1000 times.

You can make me wait forever
Push me away and tell me never
I don't mind, no I don't mind it
I would come back 1000 times.

Again again
I let it go, let it go
Cover my mouth
Don't let a single word slip out.

Wouldn't wanna tell you, no
Tell you, no
Nothing could be worse
Than the risk of
Losing what I don't have now.

I'm weaker by the minute, though
Is it so bad if I wanna cry out.

That I would die to make you mine
Bleed me dry almost every time
But I don't mind, no I don't mind it
I would come back 1000 times.

Make me wait forever
Push me away and tell me never
I don't mind, no I don't mind it
I would come back 1000 times
I would come back 1000 times (hey yeah)
I would come back 1000 times.
