2000 Years by Billy Joel

2000 Years Lyrics

edit | print 
In the begining,
There was cold and the night.
Prophets and angels,
Gave us the fire and the light.
Man was triumphant,
Armed with the faith and the will.
That even the darkest ages couldn't kill.

Two many kingdoms,
Two many flags on the field.
So many battles,
So many wounds to be healed.
Time is relentless,
Only true love perserveres.
It's been a long time but now I'm with you,
After two thousand years.

This is our moment
Here at the crossroads of time
We hope our children carry our dreams down the line
They are the vintage
What kind of life will they live?
Is this a curse or a blessing that we give?

Sometimes I wonder
Why are we so blind to fate?
Without compassion, there can be no end to hate
No end to sorrow
Caused by the same endless fears
Why can't we learn from all we've been through
After two thousand years?

There will be miracles,
After the last war is won.
Science and poetry,
Rule in the new world to come.
Prophets and angels,
Gave us the power to see,
What an amazing future there will be.

And in the evening,
After the fire and the light,
One thing is cretain;
Nothing can hold back the light.
Time is relentless,
And as the past disappears,
We're on the verge of all things new.
We are two thousand years

Armed with the faith and the will.
That even the darkest ages couldn't kill.

Two many kingdoms,
Two many flags on the field.
