Sara Bareilles - 1000 Times

Back of the room
Looking at you
Counting the steps
Between us

A hundred and five
Little blades in a line
From your skin to mine
And I feel it

Eyes on the ground
But I can't look up now
Don't wanna give it away
My secret

In another life, my teeth and tongue
Would speak aloud what until now I've only sung

'Cause I would die to make you mine
Bleed me dry each and every time
I don't mind, no, I don't mind it
I would come back a thousand times

You can make me wait forever
Push me away and tell me never
I don't mind, no, I don't mind it
I would come back a thousand times
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey

Kiss me goodnight
Like a good friend might
I'll do the same
Won't mean it

'Cause love is a cage
These words on a page
Carry the pain
They don't free it

In another life I wouldn't need to
Console myself as I resign to release you

'Cause I would die to make you mine
Bleed me dry each and every time
I don't mind, no, I don't mind it
I would come back a thousand times

You can make me wait forever
Push me away and tell me never
I don't mind, no, I don't mind it
I would come back a thousand times

Again, again I let it go, let it go
Cover my mouth, don't let a single word slip
I wouldn't wanna tell you, no, tell you, no
Nothing could be worse than the risk of
Losing what I don't have now
I'm weaker by the minute, though
Is it so bad if I wanna cry out?

And I would die to make you mine
Bleed me dry almost every time
But I don't mind, no, I don't mind it
I would come back a thousand times

Make me wait forever
Push me away, tell me never
But I don't mind, no, I don't mind it
I would come back a thousand times

I would come back a thousand times
Hey, yeah
Hey, yeah
I would come back a thousand times
