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 turn back the pages
shouting might've 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 a thousand words
called 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
one thousand embraces
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 yeah}
they'll fly to you
they'll carry you home {carry you home}
and back into my arms
suspended on silver wings {on silver wings}

and a thousand words {oohh}
called out through the ages {called through the ages}
they'll cradle you {oh yeah}
making all of your lonely years into only days {only days}
they'll hold you forever

Ohhhhhhhhhhh

A Thousand Words...
