When I asked you, you said nothing was wrong
|
But I listened to your magical song
|
All its notes were gone. You sang it, I heard
|
Silence Speaks a thousand words
|
|
You keep telling me I'll pay the price
|
For asking you once, and telling you twice
|
But I paid the day your emotions turned cold
|
Silence speaks a thousand words
|
|
[Chorus]
|
Where do I turn when you turn away
|
It's never just the things you say
|
You never, ever put me down
|
But when you speak, you turn around
|
And saying not much is saying alot
|
|
If you spoke truth, there would be no doubt
|
But the only words are "We'll work it out"
|
Well, that's not saying much, you just don't take the time
|
And that is where I draw the line
|
|
[Chorus]
|
Oh, where do I turn when you turn away
|
It's never just the things you say
|
You never, ever put me down
|
But when you speak, you turn around
|
And saying not much is saying alot
|
|
[Bridge]
|
You're sending signals, first of hope and then insecurity
|
Signals of doubt are everywhere, and subconciously
|
You know you wanna break the ties
|
But you use silence, you use lies
|
But don't worry, I'll return your song of silence
|
|
Silence speaks a thousand words
|
|
Silence speaks a thousand words
|
