Time stands still for a moment, a beautiful moment as she reaches him.
The second verse is back before she confessed, while she is still going toward him. She tells him not to be afraid-she doesn't want to scare him away-but she's loved him for a thousand years-it feels that way to her, at least-and will continue to love him for a thousand more. She keeps waiting for him to make the first move, but he won't. She's died every day waiting for him-it's painful to always see him and want to tell him how she feels, but not be able to. The chorus is her confession that she loves him. All her doubt goes away-she must tell him. But he's standing all alone and she sees her opportunity. Her heart beats fast when she's around him, she has so much 'colours' or the joys of living and being alive, that she wants to share with him, so many promises that she wants to make, but she's too afraid of 'to fall' perhaps that he doesn't return her love, that she can't tell him.
Verse 1: She has loved this guy for awhile, but never told him. I don't know if this is 'correct' but it's my interpretation of the song: Time has brought your heart to me, I have loved you for a thousand years All of my doubt, suddenly goes away somehowĭarling, don't be afraid, I have loved you for a thousand yearsĮvery breath, every hour has come to thisĪnd all along I believed I would find you
