I know that your hiding things

Using gentle words to shelter me,

Your words are 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 be back back

I could hear that you whipsered

As you walked through that door

But still I swore to hide all the pain as 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

Whats 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 there reaching you

Suspended on silver sings



Oh a thousand words

One thousand embraces will craddle you

Making all of your weary dasy 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 home

And back into my arms

Suspended on silver wings...



And a thousand words called out through the ages

They'll cradle you

Making all of your lonely years seem only days

I'll hold you forever
