It's a thousand year old song A thousand years and it goes on Promises of many kinds Given all so many times It's a thousand year old song A thousand lines to sing a long A thousand verses to hold on It's a thousand year old song It's a thousand year old song Of a love story gone wrong I've been tryin' to bite my tongue But I must sing it.... On and on and on and on and on On and on and on and on and on On and on and on and on and on It's a thousand year old song For all those who walk alone It reminds you of the pain Someone calls your lovers name It's a thousand year old song And no change is gonna come Though it's always been the same I had to write it down again Again
