English Version

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
And 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

Oh, 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 can see how you can stand there 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 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 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
They'll fly to you, they'll carry you home
And back into my arms suspended on silver wings, ooh
And a thousand words called out through the ages
They'll cradle you, turning all of the loving into only days
They'll hold you forever
