1000 words- Jade from sweetbox



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 (will) 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

And 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



Cause a thousand words

Called 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



Oh a thousand words

Have never been spoken (ohh)

They'll fly to you

They'll carry you home (carry you hoome)

And back into my arms (aaarms)

Suspended on silver wings (on silver wings)



And a thousand words (oooh)

Called out through the ages (called through the ages)

Will cradle you (ooh yeah)

Turning all of the lonely years to only days (only days)

They'll hold you forever



A thousand words...
