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 eaisly.

I acted so distant then,
Didn't say goodbye before you left,
But I was listening,
You'll fight you battles far for me,
Far too eaisly.

"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 eye's out and begged you not to depart,
But now I'm not afraid to say what's in my heart.

Through 1000 words,
Have never been spoken,
They'll fly to you,
Pressing over the tide,
And distance holding you,
Suspended on silver wings,

And 1000 words,
1000 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,
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 trun back the pages,
Anger might of 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 1000 words,
Crawl out through the ages,
They'll fly to you,
Even though we can't see,
I know they're reaching you,
Suspended on silver wings.

Oh 1000 words,
1000 embraces,
They'll cradle you,
Making all of your wiery days seem far away,
They'll hold you forever!

Oh 1000 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 1000 words,
Crawl out through the ages,
They'll cradle you,
Turning all of the love there is to lonely days,
They'll hold you forever!
