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 have been the answer
What if I´d 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 ( 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 ( ohh)
Call out through the ages ( call through the ages)
They´ll cradle you ( oh yeah)
Turn all of the lonely years to only days ( only days)
They´ll hold you forever
Ohh...
A thousand words
