A Day: A Thousand Years Lyrics

Cannot turn back time

And the hands cycle forward

The gears still crank and spin

Anticipation is onward

With my past in rear-vision

I cannot change mistakes I've made through my own decisions

Falling sands still allow a future to shift sails into a current of now (keep sailing on!)

Thousand years in a day

The time and space locked in this plane seem further away

One day is a thousand years away

Last days, quickly turning the page

Those who have left won't have much time left to wait

One day is a thousand years away

Last days, quickly turning the page

Those we lost while we were here on this earth

Won't wait because a thousand years are a day

It won't be long before we reunite and share the glory of the heavens above

In the end, when our souls are with God

And our bodies sleep for eternity

We wake to see the ones we loved in this place

Because a thousand years are like a single day

Time and space redefined

Feel my spirit eyes adjust to the light now

Perception of time on earth is blind

To the chronological reality

That our time in heaven never ends

Time and space exist within the Father's hands

Those we lost while we were here on this earth

Won't wait because a thousand years are a day

It won't be long before we reunite and share the glory of the heavens above

In the end, when our souls are with God

And our bodies sleep for eternity

We wake to see the ones we loved in this place

Because a thousand years are like a single day

Time and space redefined

Feel my spirit eyes adjust to the light now
