1000 Words (englisch) Lyrics

"1,000 Words in English"

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 good bye before you left
But I was listening
You'll fight your battles far from me
Far too easily

Save your tears 'cause I've 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

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...
