Tekstovi: Sweetbox. 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'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 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 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

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, ooh

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

A thousand words
