Chorus:
Words, they
cut like a knife Cut into my life I don't want to hear your words They
always attack Please take them all back If they're yours I don't want
anymore
You think you're so smart You try to manipulate me You try
to humiliate with your words You think you're so chic You write me
beautiful letters You think you're so much better than
me
Bridge:
But your actions speak louder than
words And they're only words, unless they're true Your actions speak
louder than promises You're inclined to make and inclined to
break
(chorus)
You think you're so shrewd You try to
bring me low You try to gain control with your
words
(bridge) (chorus)
Friends they tried to
warn me about you He has good manners, he's so romantic But he'll only
make you blue How can I explain to them How could they know I'm in love
with your words Your words
You think you're so sly I caught you at
your game You will not bring me shame with your
words
(bridge) (chorus)
Too much blinding
light Your touch, I've grown tired of your words Words, words A
linguistic form that can meaningfully be spoken in isolation Conversation,
expression, a promise, a sigh In short, a lie A message from heaven, a
signal from hell I give you my word I'll never tell Language that is used
in anger Personal feelings signaling danger A brief remark, an utterance,
information Don't mince words, don't be evasive Speak your mind, be
persuasive A pledge, a commitment, communication, words
