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,
While 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 a 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,
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 ( ohhh 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 ( ohh),
Call out through the ages ( call through the ages),
They´ll cradle you ( oh yeah)
Turning all of the lonely years to only days ( only days),
They´ll hold you forever...
Oh...
A thousand words...
I´d like to give credit to shadchan for spotting some of the errors
