If only we talked it out a little more
You might never have gone away
If only I tried
Instead of making for the door
You'd be loving me still today
And if I'd only been a little wiser

You knew I knew the lies you told
But you thought I didn't care
And if I'd only shown my love
In so many different ways
If only you'd stayed

And in 1000 years
I'll still be thinking of you
Though in 1000 years
My love will have gone
But in a 1000 years
We'll probably be together
But right now you're gone

If only I had you back again right now
Wouldn't ask for a thing, I know
Except to say I'm sorry, and how
And the wisdom to let it show
And if I'd only looked a little deeper
Each time I saw you weeping
And how I wished I held you close

'Cause If I only shown my love
In so many different ways
Baby you'd want to stay

And in 1000 years
I'll still be thinking of you
Though in 1000 years
My love will have gone
But in a 1000 years
We'll probably be together
But right now you're gone

And in 1000 years
(I'll still be thinking of you)
1000 years
(My love will be long gone)
1000 years
(We'll probably be together forever)
1000 years
(I'll still be thinking of you)
1000 years
(whaaa whooo)
