Words,
they don't mean nothing
So tell me why
they hurt so much
I meant to tell you
something
It was on the tip
of my tounge
Words rush by so quickly
And its too late
to take them back
I tried to say I'm sorry
And that goodbye
was just an act
Chorus
But all my words
got in the way
And all the things
I meant to say
Were not the things
you heard
Oh, why'd you have to go
And take me
at my word
Words
come back to haunt you
Yeah, they just keep
hanging around
I still can hear the echo
I still can hear
their angry stound
Chorus
Words can say I love you
Oh, words can break a heart
I should have
stopped you leaving
And told the truth
right from the start.
