Some words are better left unspoken....

lyrics

Some Words
(Winters,Sherman)

I once heard a story
About a girl who wasn't there
She had taken leave of love or glory
And I couldn't help but wonder
If you and her had things you share
If the way you live could somehow slip under
Under these rules we bear

BUT SOME WORDS RING IN YOUR HEAD
AND SOME JUST BOUNCE AROUND YOUR BED
AND SOME WORDS
ARE LOST ON HEARTS ONCE BROKEN

SOME WORDS COME MUCH TOO LATE
THOSE THAT PUNCH ABOVE THEIR WEIGHT
AND SOME WORDS
ARE BETTER LEFT UNSPOKEN


I don't know why
This story lingers
Through all my days and nights
When you slipped away
Right through my fingers
But I hear your voice
And your explanations
I hear the echoes
Whispers and fights
I hear the loss and resignation
As you fade out of sight

BUT SOME WORDS RING IN YOUR HEAD
AND SOME JUST BOUNCE AROUND YOUR BED
AND SOME WORDS
ARE LOST ON HEARTS ONCE BROKEN

SOME WORDS COME MUCH TOO LATE
THOSE THAT PUNCH ABOVE THEIR WEIGHT
AND SOME WORDS
ARE BETTER LEFT UNSPOKEN

I don't know why
This story lingers
Through all my days and nights
When you slipped away
You slipped away


SOME WORDS RING IN YOUR HEAD....

I don't know why this story lingers
