Only Words

Baby take my hand and I'll take you higher

'Cause my one desire is you and I need you now

More than ever if it takes forever and I know

These things are things you've heard

But up till now they were only words

Dancing on the lips of intimate strangers

Shallow like the city, now they're vivid like the sun

Blinding me with spirit

In the night my private soul can hear it

Common as the hummingbirds

But they were only words

Now I feel like a wise old man

I now understand all the hows, the whens, the whys

These thoughts are mine for the very first time

Love it springs, it blooms, eternal and true

It may sound like nothing new to you only words

Dancing on the lips of intimate strangers

Shallow like the city, now they're vivid like the sun

Blinding me with spirit

In the night my private soul can hear it

Common as the hummingbirds

But they were only words

Here's hoping that we'll never break the silence

Here's hoping that we never run from ourselves

Here's hoping can't and never, not now

And gee it's time to go are words we'll never know

Dancing on the lips of intimate strangers

Oh, yeah, now they're vivid like the sun

Blinding me with spirit

In the night my private soul can hear it

Common as the hummingbirds

But they were only words

Dancin' on the lips of intimate strangers

Shallow like the city, now they're vivid like the sun

Blinding me with spirit

In the night my private soul can hear it

Common as the hummingbirds, only words

Blinding me with spirit

In the night my private soul can hear it

Common as the hummingbirds

But they were only words
