Silence Speaks (A Thousand Words)

Silence Speaks(A Thousand Words) - Debbie Gibson

Written by：Debbie Gibson/Fred Zarr

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

Where do I turn when you turn away

It's never just the things you say

You never ever put me down

But when I speak you turn around

And saying not much is saying a lot

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

Well where do I turn when you turn away

It's never just the things you say

You never ever put me down

But when I speak you turn around

And saying not much is saying a lot

You're sending signals

First of hope then insecurity

Signals of doubt are everywhere

And subconsciously

You know you wanna break the ties

But you use silence

You use lies

Don't worry

I'll return your song of silence

Silence speaks a thousand words

Silence speaks a thousand words
