1000 Words (Orchestra Version) Lyrics

I know that your 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 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 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

(Instrumental)

The dream isn`t over yet
Though I often say I can`t forget
I still re-live 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 stand 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

(Instrumental)

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, oh
And a thousand words
Call out through the ages
They`ll cradle you
Make all of the lonely years to lonely days
They`ll hold you forever

Oh, a thousand words
