歌詞 :
 
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 turn back the pages
 
Shouting might have been the answer
 
What if I'd 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 cradle 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 stammered 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 strong 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'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 ohhh
 
 
And a thousand words
 
Call out through the ages
 
They'll cradle you
 
Turning all of the lonely years to only days
 
They'll hold you forever
