I know you're hiding things,
useing gentle words to shelter me
Your words were like a dream,
but dreams could never fool me
Not that easily
I acted so distant,
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 soar, to hide the pain as I turn back the pages
Shouting might've been the answer
What if I cried out my eyes and begged you not to depart?
But now I'm not afraid to see whats in my heart
Ref.:
Thought a thousand words,
have never been spoken
They'll fly to you,
Crossing over the time
and distance holding you,
suspended on silver wings
And a thousand words,
one thousand confessions
Will cradle you,
Making all of the pain
You fell seem far away
They'll hold you forever
The dream isn't over yet,
Thought I often sai I can't forget
I still relieve that day,
You'vebeen there with me all the way,
I still hear you say
"Wait for me, I'll write your letters"
I coul see how you stammered with you eyes to the floor.
But still I swore,
to doubt when I turn back the pages
Anger might have been the answer
What if I'd hung my head and said that I couldn't wait
But now I'm strong enought to know it's not too late
Ref.:
'Cause a thousand words,
called out through the ages
They'll fly to you,
even though I can't see
I know their reaching you,
suspended on silver wings
Oh a thousand words,
one thousand embracess
Will cradle you,
Making all of your weary days
Seem far away
They'll hold you forever
Oh a thousand words (A thousand words),
have never been spoken (Oh!),
They'll fly to you
and carry you home (Carry you home!)
And back into my arms.
suspended on silver wings! (On silver wings!)
And a thousand words (Oh!),
call out through the ages (Call through the ages)
They'll craddle you (Oh yeah!)
No more lonely days (Lonely days)
They'll hold you forever!
Oh...
A thousand words
