And I’ve seen you in 1000 faces
And I’ve whispered your name
Into the wind
again and again
Awaiting a response,
nothing comes.
And yet the sun shines again.

And I’ve seen you in 1000 faces
And I watch
As they stare blankly through me
Oh, that they’d hold that addictive smile
That you’d inhabit their world, just for a while.
That they’d whisper “I love you”
In a loved-up, tangled-up,
giddy mess.
Dressed as maids, as wolves,
as top hatted gentlemen.
Dripping with glitter, and jewels and bustles.
Just as we were,
just as we were.

And I’ve seen you in 1000 faces.
I see your glint lurking in her eye
And I am transported out of this world, out of this time
I see you in 1000 faces
1000s of features of passers by
1000 faces I’d have you steal, just for a moment,
a second,
and I’d hold onto it forever.
And I’d give all I have
just to giggle with you again.

And I see you in 1000 faces
none so beautiful.
None so electric
So full of fun,
so full of sweet, mischievous,
nonsensical mess
So full of glittery relentlessness.

And I’ve seen you in 1000 faces
And I’ve whispered your name
Into the wind
again and again
Awaiting a response,
nothing comes.
And yet the sun shines again.
