A thousand nights later memories linger

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

A thousand nights later I only got me

No problem, no complaints; 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 life can bring

Their body dies while their soul defies to live

Haven't given all 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
