Lyrics A Thousand Lives - Sharon Corr

Mama told me
You don't need it all
A few small things
Someone to love

Daddy told me
Gotta keep it simple
A little piece of something
Is a lot more than nothing

But I was young
Too young to know
That this is how
The story goes

Now that I've lived through
A thousand lives or more
Been hopeless and broken
And still come up for more

Constantly on the edge of
Losing control
So I wait on the sidelines
For my curtain call
And l take centre stage
In this masquerade

Autumn's fallen
And winter unfolds
Life keeps on changing
And with it we go

Time will take you
To the end of the world
And back again
Till the lesson you learn
But I was young
Too young to know
This is how
The story goes

Now that I've lived through
A thousand lives or more
Been hopeless and broken
And still come up for more

Constantly on the edge of
Losing control
So I wait on the sidelines
For my curtain call
And l take centre stage
In this masquerade
