Cowboy Junkies
thousand year prayer
Select language to translate this lyric
Here we all are at the end
Of this century of beauty and loss
Greedily ate what you gave us
The rest we tossed
We've trapped all your rivers, paved every pass
Pulled out your sky till we caused it to rip
But you've got Jimi Hendrix
So let's call it an even split
I've met a girl who has turned
My whole world upside down
The stars I once stretched for
Now, litter the ground
Cursed by too little lies
And too much belief
In the strength of another man's words
But I've got a girl, thank you, Lord
Here we all are at the start
Of another thousand year
All those love stories
Yet to be told
Ours is this river
Asleep at our feet
Blessed by this wet autumn day
Here we all are
