1000 words~!

This song...brings back memories~

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
Didnt 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 afraid to say
WHATS 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 isnt over yet
Though I often say I can't forget
I still relieve 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 I 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
