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 turn back the pages Shouting might've 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 of the pain you feel seem faraway They'll hold you forever
The dream isn't over yet Though I often say I can 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 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've 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 faraway 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 Turning all of the lonely years to only days They'll hold you forever
Ohh... A thousand words...
It's a beautiful song and I love the lyrics...they are just absolutely beautiful.
Darkness surrounded the old mansion which sat upon the hill, blocking out theglowing sunset behind it. Boards covered most of the windows with rusty nails barely hanging onto the termite infested planks. Where the door once stood now only a ragged cloth hung low from above the dull wood frame that once adorned the houses sleek look with perfecting. The grass around the worn building had long since turned a dead brown that had almost reach an indefinent white color. The large forest that grew around the estate stood full of giant trees with weak branches and bare limbs, the leaves having fallen off ages ago. The only thing remaining that had not worn down with age, was the lake that stood in the front yard, acting somewhat like a moat. The clear water shown deep, though no matter how cleared it seemed the bottom was not visable. Crows are almost always found lining to side of the water, tipping their dark beaks into the water and pulling back up. One such crow is noted as the scarlet bird, having the species of a crow but everything that should be black, appearing instead as a deep crimson color...
Yeah, just felt like writing. Now I'm off to bed.
