英语歌曲:好听单曲-A thousand nights

A thousand nights 

by Maria Arredondo

 

A thousand nights later memories linger¹

The good the bad...I can touch them with my finger

A thousand nights later I only got me

No problem, no complaints²

It's the way it should be

Life was fast

It was free

Guess I've been lucky

Cause I'm still here...

But some friends are gone

Has it really been that long

The memories are still so beautiful

When life's been unkind

Those friends are on my mind

Nothing's been greater here

Nothing's been greater here

A thousand nights later

For some of them it's such a lonely thing

Haven't seen the future or luck their life can bring

 

Their body dies while their soul defies to live

Haven't given all that they'd like to give

Life is cruel

It is kind

Why is God calling them before their time

But some friends are gone

Has it really been that long

 

The memories are still so beautiful

When life's been unkind

Those friends are on my mind

Nothing's been greater here

Nothing's been greater here

A thousand nights later

Can you see me from the sky

Do you caress me when I cry

Cause I know you're still with me for all eternity

But friends are gone

Has it really been that long

The memories are still so beautiful

When life's been unkind

Those friends are on my mind

Nothing's been greater here

Nothing's been greater here

A thousand nights later

Nothing feels greater here

Nothing feels greater here

A thousand nights later
