1000 Words; Koda Kumi

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,
While 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.

'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 far away.
They'll hold you forever.

Oh a thousand words (a thousand words),
Have never been spoken (ohhh yeah),
They'll fly to you,
They'll carry you home (carry you home),
And back into my arms,
Suspended on silver wings (On silver wings),

And a thousand words (ohh),
Call out through the ages (call through the ages),
They'll cradle you (oh yeah)
Turning all of the lonely years to only days (only days),
They'll hold you forever...



I know that you lied to me
Using gentle words to shelter me
Your words are like a dream
But dreams could never fool me
It's not right to me...

I'm acting so distant now
Turned my back as you walked away
But I was listening
That you fight your battles far from me
It's not right to me...

"Don't you worry 'cause I come back."
I could hear you speaking
as you walked out the door
I acted strong
To hide the pain when I
Turned back the pages

Crying out a windy answer
What if I shed my tears
and begged you not to leave?
But now I'm not afraid to do what's in my heart...

Those thousand words
Have never been spoken
So far away
I'm sending them to you wherever you are
Suspended on sliver wings

Those thousand words
Have never been spoken
They'll treasure you
Make you no longer dare seem so far away
And hold you forever

That dream isn't over yet
I pretend and say, "I can't forget."
I still live in my day
You've been there with me all the way
It's not right of me...

"Don't you worry 'cause I'll write to you."
I could see you speaking as
You looked away
I acted strong
To hide the love when I
Turned back the pages
Anger might've been the answer
But if I shook my head and said
That I can't wait

But now I'm not afraid
To do what's in my heart...

Those thousand words
Have never been spoken
So far away
I'm sending them to you wherever you are
Suspended on sliver wings

Those thousands words
Have never been spoken
They'll treasure you
Make you no longer dare seem
So far away
And hold you forever

Those thousand words
Have never been spoken
La la la la
I'm sending them to you wherever you are
Suspended on sliver wings

Those thousands words
Have never been spoken
La la la la
Make you no longer here
Feel like calling me
La la la la...
