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 fooled me

Not that easily

I acted so distant then Didn't say good bye before you left

But I  was listening You fight your battles far from me

Far too easily

Save your tears caus' I'll come back

I can 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 depart?

But now I'm not afraid to say what's in my heart!

Oh a thousand words have never been spoken Will 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 of 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 could see how you stand here with your eyes to the floor

But still I swore to hide the doubts When I turn back the pages

Anger might have been the answer

What if I hold my head and say that I couln't wait?

But now I'm strong enough to know it's not too late!

Cause a thousand words call out through the ages Will 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 Will fly to you

They'll carry you home and back into my arms Suspended on silver wings!

And a thousand words call out through the ages Will cradle you

Turning all of the lonely years to only days They'll hold you forever...
