I know that you're hi-ding things U-sing gen-tle words to shel-ter me Your words were like a dream But dreams could ne-ver fool me Not that ea-si-ly I ac-ted so dis-tant then Did-n't say good-bye be-fore you left But I was list-en-ing You fight your bat-tles far from me Far too ea-si-ly "Save your tears cause I抣l come 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抦 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抰 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 word Call out through the ages They'll cradle you Turning all of the lonly years to only days They'll hold you forever
