The Affordable Floors - A Thousand Days Lyrics


The Affordable Floors Lyrics

A Thousand Days Lyrics
From the Album: Drumming on the Walls (1989)

I can't remember, the way you carried your name.
I had a snapshot that I discarded out of pride or shame.
"Time to talk it out, turn the thing about," So I've been told. I've taken such advice, at first it sounded nice, but now its getting old.

I called you at your lover's home today, I felt that I should try.
That's the voice it takes to stay my faith, somewhere inside.
How I wonder, how I wonder sometimes.

I can't remember, which one of us was to blame.
The years surrender, to one September with a thousand days.
"Keep your chin up son, your day is sure to come," these weary words. Emptying my glass, I wait for it to pass as the picture blurs.

I drove by your family's home today, and saw your child cry.
Held in our embrace, you dried his face, tight by your side.
How I wonder, How I wonder what you are.

Take the time to talk, Give it one more shot, or so I hear.
I'm not certain that I'm right,
but I've been putting up this fight for too many years.

I call you at your family's home at night and sometimes wonder why,
I can't seem to break this senseless faith in something gone by.
How I wonder, How I wonder sometimes.

How soon will we be alone again?
I'll take you, take you for everything.
Don't shout, the children are sleeping still.
We'll wake together I know we will.
How I wonder, How I wonder sometimes.
