Lyrics
1000 Years
If I could sleep for 1,000 years
Wake up, fresh, start again
It would be so good, so good, to know
That I could do it again (What it was like back then?)
From the day you were born
Acting out a role
It would be so good, so good, to know
Didn?t have to act no more
CHORUS:
When the lights are on and you know there?s no one home
When the music?s gone and you?re singing all alone
It?s a long long lonely ride when you?re on your own
When everybody you know is blind
Wanting not to see
It would be so good, so good , to know
That they can still see me
When you walk out upon that stage
Blinded by the light
It would be so good, so good , to know
That they still think you?re all right
CHORUS
If I could sleep for 1,000 years
Wake up, fresh, start again
It would be so good, so good, to know
What it was like back then
