I know that you are 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 Have never been spoken They'll fly to you They'll carry you home and back into my arms Suspended on silver wings ohhh
And a thousand words Call out through the ages They'll cradle you Turning all of the lonely years to only days They'll hold you forever A thousand words
