[Verse] The first steps are the hardest part The first taste'll make you wild I started driving and I'm still believin' Oh Rosie, we're gonna make it Before you know it all the bells are ringing Before you know it the thunder's rolling Before you know it the walls are shaking And you're waiting alone and naked [Chorus] A thousand days and nights I've been working just to try get it right White knuckle, gotta hold on tight I've been working for a thousand nights [Verse] So if you're reading and if you're willing Shake the dust off of our shoes Let's get out of our heads, out of this mess Take me out of the rain, and put me to bed Well nothing's real, till you make it And nothing's dead, till you say it's so Hearts these days are bought and sold Aren't you tired of kicking stones? [Chorus] A thousand days and nights I've been working just to try get it right White knuckle, gotta hold on tight I've been working for a thousand nights [Outro] (Oh oh, oh oh) A Thousand Nights x 4
