Words Lyrics by Doves

The Best of Doves: The Places Between

2002

[Verse 1]
Inside a heart of summer soul
Don't let them take it away

Cause inside's something solid gold
So don't let them throw it away

[Chorus]
Words, they mean nothing
So you can't hurt me
I said words, they mean nothing
So you can't stop me

I said your eyes, they say nothing
So you can't hurt me
(On summer days like these)
I said words they mean nothing
So you can't hurt me

[Verse 2]
Follow your own path from here
So don't listen to what they say
(They don't know nothing)

Cause inside, you've a heart of gold
So don't let them take this away

[Chorus]
Words, they mean nothing
So you can't hurt me
(On summer days like these)
I said words, they mean nothing
So you can't stop me
(On summer days like these)

I said your eyes, they say nothing
So you can't fault me
I said words, they mean nothing
So you can't hurt me

[Verse 3]
Inside a heart of pure soul
A sun rising and falling away, like your soul

Cause here comes something wonderful
So don't let them throw it away

[Chorus]
Words, they mean nothing
So you can't hurt me
(On summer days like these)
I said words they mean nothing
So you can't stop me
(On summer days like these)

I said your eyes, they say nothing
So you can't stop me
(On summer days like these)
I said words, they mean nothing
So you can't hurt me
