I know that you're hiding things
using gentle words to shelter me
your words we're 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 coz 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 part
but now i'm not afraid to say what's in my heart

thoug 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, a thousand embraces will cradle you
making all of your weary days seem far away
they'll hold you forever

(instrumental)

oh a thousand words (a thousand words)
have never been spoken (oh 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 (oh)
call out through the ages (call through the ages)
they'll cradle you (oh yeah)
make all of the lonely years to lonely days (lonely days)
they'll hold you forever

oh... a thousand words...
