1000 Words Lyrics by AmaLee

Nostalgia VII

2019

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 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
Yeah
"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 turned 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 dreams
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
And a thousand words
Call out through the ages
They'll cradle you
Making all of the lonely years
To only days
They'll hold you forever
Oh
A thousand words
