I know that your 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 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 have been the answer
What if I cried my eyes out and begged you not to part
But now I`m not afraid to say what`s in my heart
Cause a thousand words
Call out through the ages
They`ll fly to you
Even though I can`t see
I know they are reaching you, suspended on silver wings
Oh a thousand words
A 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 (ohh yeah)
They`ll fly to you
They`ll carry you home, (carry you home) and into my arms
Suspended on silver wings (on silver wings)
And a thousand words (ohh)
Call out through the ages (call through the ages)
They`ll cradel you (ohh yeah)
Make all of the lonely years to lonely days (lonely days)
They`ll hold you forever.
