Lyric 1000 Words
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
And 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 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
Oh, a thousand words have never been spoken
They ll fly to you crossing over the time
And distance holding you suspended on silver wings
And a thousand words, one thousand confessions
Will cradle you making all the pain you feel seem far away
They ll hold you forever
The dream isn t over yet
Though I often say I can t forget
I still relive that day
You ve been there with me all the way
I still hear you say
"Wait for me I ll write you letters"
I can see how you can stand there with your eyes to the floor
But still I swore to hide the doubt when I turned back the pages
Anger might have been the answer
What if I hung my head and said that I couldn t wait
But now I m strong enough to know it s not too late
Cause a thousand words called out through the ages
They ll fly to you even though we 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 have never been spoken
They ll fly to you, they ll carry you home
And back into my arms suspended on silver wings, ooh
And a thousand words called out through the ages
They ll cradle you, turning all of the loving into only days
They ll hold you forever
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
And 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 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
Oh, a thousand words have never been spoken
They ll fly to you crossing over the time
And distance holding you suspended on silver wings
And a thousand words, one thousand confessions
Will cradle you making all the pain you feel seem far away
They ll hold you forever
The dream isn t over yet
Though I often say I can t forget
I still relive that day
You ve been there with me all the way
I still hear you say
"Wait for me I ll write you letters"
I can see how you can stand there with your eyes to the floor
But still I swore to hide the doubt when I turned back the pages
Anger might have been the answer
What if I hung my head and said that I couldn t wait

Cause a thousand words called out through the ages

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 have never been spoken
They ll fly to you, they ll carry you home
And back into my arms suspended on silver wings, ooh
And a thousand words called out through the ages
They ll cradle you, turning all of the loving into only days
They ll hold you forever
