Final Fantasy X-2

1000 Words - Official English Version by Jade

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 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
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 back into my arms
Suspended on silver wings
And a thousand words
Called out through the ages
They'll cradle you
Making all of the lonely years to only days
They'll hold you forever
