LETRA

1000 words

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 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
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

Though a thousand words
Have never been spoken
They'll fly to you
Crossing over the tide
And this is holding you
Suspended on silver wings
And a thousand words
One thousand confessions
Will craddle you, making all of the
pain seem far away
They'll gold you forever

The dream isn't over yet
Though i often say i can forget
I still relive that day
You've been with me all the way
I still hear you say

Wait for me i'll write you letters
I could see how you stammered with
your eyes to the floor
But still i swore to hide the doubt
When i turned back the pages
Anger might've been the answer
What if I hung my head and said 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
weariness 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 turning all of your
lonely years to only days
they'll hold you forever
