The Gaslight Anthem - 1,000 Years lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

Full moon I know in the town I live

Steady as she waits

Seems as though she yearns for me

Calls me by my name

Sometimes she says come to me

Kiss me, wanna play?

And other nights she's just hangin'

With the stars

(Chorus)

And I've seen the patience through all the mistakes And who's gonna save you now ?

And ayayay, ayayay, it's alright, she says

Once upon a time I lived a perfect night

Ayay, ayayay in another life she says

In a dream of mine from 1000 years ago

(Verse 2)

Don't look back, I heard a voice

And know that I couldn't think

The pictures then were black and white

And the details were in-between

I heard about a woman once

Who did everything ever asked of her

She died last week and her last words were

It wasn't worth it

(Chorus)

And I've seen the patience through all the mistakes And who's gonna save you now ?

And ayayay, ayayay, it's alright, she says

Once upon a time I lived a perfect night

Ayay, ayayay in another life she says

In a dream of mine from 1000 years ago
