A thousand words

A thousand words Lyrics

I know that you’re hiding things
Using gentle words to shelter me
Your words were like a dream
But dreams could never fool me
Not that easily

I acted so distant then
Didn’t say goodbye before you left
But I was listening
You’ll fight your battles far from me
Far too easily

Save your tears 'cause I’ll come back
I could hear that you whispered as
You walked through that door
But still I swore
To hide the pain when I
Turned back the pages
Shouting might have been the answer
What if I cried my eyes out and
Begged you not to depart?

But now I'm not afraid
To say what's in my heart...

‘Cause thousand words
call out through the ages
They’ll fly to you
Even though I can’t see
I know that they’re reaching you
Suspended on silver wings

Oh a thousand words
One thousand embraces
Will cradle you
Making all of your weay days
Seem far away
They’ll hold you forever

Oh a thousand words
Have never been spoken
They’ll fly to you
They’ll carry you home
And back into my arms
Suspended on silver wings

And a thousand words
Call out through the ages
They’ll cradle you
Turning all of your lonley years
To only days
They’ll hold you forever

Oh...
A thousand words...
