G#
Heart beats fast,
            Eb
Colours and promises,
          Cm7
How to be brave;
          Bb        Eb    G#
How can I love when I’m afraid to fall?
                 Eb
But watching you stand alone,
          Cm7
All of my doubt
         Bb    Eb       Fm7
Suddenly goes away, somehow…

 Fm7           Cm Bb
   One step closer.

Chorus:
     Eb
     I have died every day waiting for you.
     Cm7
     Darling, don’t be afraid -
            Bb
     I have loved you
           G#
     For a thousand years,
                             Eb            Bb
     And I’ll love you for a thousand more.

Instrumental: G# Bb | G#

Time stands still,
Beauty in all she is.
I will be brave -
I will not let anything take away
What’s standing in front of me.
Every breath,
Every hour has come to this…

   Fm7 Bb   Cm Cm7 Bb
   One step closer.

Chorus:
     I have died every day waiting for you.
     Darling, don’t be afraid -
     I have loved you
     For a thousand years,
     I’ll love you for a thousand more.

     And all along I believed I would find you.
     Time has brought your heart to me,
     I have loved you
     For a thousand years,
     I’ll love you for a thousand more.
