lyrics

Love left me for dead
Feeling like I was in a stranger's bed
Haunted by the words still left unsaid
So I said goodbye
No sense in giving it one more try
To bleed more comfort from this lie


CHORUS:
Now the words are free
Nothing will be the same for you and me
The words are there
Icicles hanging down in the frozen air
It's all been said
No more heavy clouds, hanging overhead
Forget what used to be
Now the words are free

I took you by surprise
Disbelief glowing in your eyes
Piercing anger defending your wounded pride
How could I just walk away
It wouldn't fit with the plans you'd made
It started sinking in, I wouldn't stay

CHORUS

I still hear that sound
As dreams came crashing to the ground
A happy ending was nowhere to be found
We're better off this way
You'll be completely convinced someday
If only I'd had some softer words to say

CHORUS

Any way you describe it, Allister's music will reach deep within and satisfy ... more
