Bilingual
I know a thousand tales
To fill a thousand nights
But now another story comes to mind
A noble young vizier
Ascends to wondrous heights
He's brilliant as he's handsome
And handsome as he's kind
He is at once familiar and unknowable
To the frightened girl he meets along the way
And to the girl's surprise
Something in his eyes
Beckons her to know him and inspires her to say
I want to know your story
I want to know your past
So tell me slowly from the start
Leave out no detail
Savor every part
I want to know your story
So make the story last
I want to know each twist and turn
Tell me all I've missed
I've so much to learn
For when it comes to stories
I thought I knew them all
Now I'm face to face with one I can't seem to recall
The young vizier had come
To help inspire change
But fate had planned an unexpected twist
Within the palace walls
He discovered something strange
And found the missing part of him
He didn't know he'd missed
She's at once a comfort and a mystery
To the callow man she meets that fateful day
She's beautiful and wise
And something in her eyes
Beckons him to know her
And inspires him to say
I want to know your story
I want to know your past
I want to know your future too
Fill my days and nights
With the tale of you
I want to know your story (I want to know your story)
So make the story last (So make the story last)
And linger over every part
Tell it 'til I know
Every bit by heart
I never cared for stories
Until you entered mine
But now my only wish is that our plots may intertwine
But I forget what happens next
I'm not sure I understand
Remind me how she answers
When he asks her for her hand
Took you long enough
Yes, she says yes
A thousand and one nights with you
Is not enough to spend
So let's make ours a story with no end
So let's make ours a story with no end
