| 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 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 cried my eyes out and begged you not to depart
|
| But now I’m not afraid to say what’s in my heart
|
| Though 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 cradel 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 with your eyes to the floor
|
| But still I swore
|
| To hide the doubt when I turn back the pages
|
| Anger might have been the answer
|
| What if I’d hung my head and said that I couldn’t wait
|
| But now I’m stroing enough to know it’s not too late
|
| Cause a thousand words
|
| Call out through the ages
|
| They’ll fly to you
|
| Even though we can’t see
|
| I know they are reaching you, suspended on silver wings
|
| Oh a thousand words
|
| One thousand embraces
|
| Will cradel 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 (ohh yeah)
|
| They’ll fly to you
|
| They’ll carry you home, (carry you home) and 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 cradel you (ohh yeah)
|
| Make all of the lonely years to lonely days (lonely days)
|
| They’ll hold you forever.
|
| Ohhhhhhhhhhh a thousand words |
