Lyrics

The closest you've ever come to me Was to help me up the stairs You stood in the middle of the stairway You nearly dragged me up the stairs "Well, you've been asleep" "Well, I've been asleep for how long?" she says "Ooh, why do you question me?" He says, "You never cared about time before, my friend" It seems like a thousand days since you've been gone It seems like a thousand days since you've been gone Well you're not my friеnd, well you're not my love And this is somеthing that we really don't discuss If there is no time and there is no place And if there was, well, you'd never leave a trace And as all arch angels do to you And as all arch enemies will finally do to you, too Well, I found you It seems like a thousand days since you've been gone It seems like a thousand days since you've been gone It seems like a thousand days since you've been gone It seems like a thousand days since you've been gone Quiet now, songbird, just for one night Well, I know that you love to sing And, oh baby, well, I know that you love to write Well, you live by the light of the moon And I live by light of desire Ooh, such words to her over the phone "Just how many people are there with you now?" A thousand days, a thousand days Ooh, well, I can see the trouble Well, the sun is here today now And I requested a storm But I like some kind of TIME/LIFE edition Tradition, competition Being the only thing That I really have to remember The great singers and the great players And if the sun warms up the rain And the rain puts out the sun Why does the greatest love become the greatest pain? A thousand days (It seems like a thousand days since you've been gone) Well, where are you? Sometimes I hear you crying (It seems like a thousand days since you've been gone) And I wake up, and still I wake up crying (It seems like a thousand days since you've been gone) It seems like a thousand days (It seems like a thousand days since you've been gone) So, where are you? Where are you? (It seems like a thousand days since you've been gone)
