I know that you’re hiding things Using gentle words to shatter me If words were like a dream Our dreams could never fall in 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 out a breathy answer What if I cried my eyes out and Begged you not to part?
But now I'm not afraid To sing 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 they’re reaching you Suspended on silver wings
Oh a thousand words and a thousand embraces Will cradle you Making all of your weariness 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 on And back into my arms Suspended on silver wings
And a thousand words Call out through the ages They’ll cradle you Holding all of the loneliness To only days They’ll hold you forever
