Lyrics
Here I go again
Feeling the disconnect
Sensing the space between our bones
I cried alone tonight
For the thousandth time
Craving your touch but it's ice cold
My mind starts to race
I feel so far away
From everything I've ever known
You told me you would try and that you wouldn't let us die But you're not backing up the lines you sold
Cause you're just a word man
Can't hold me with your hands
Make promises you can't ever keep
Oh you're just a word man
Tell me I'll never understand but you make it so hard to believe
So I keep on waiting for the day
When I will feel all that you say
All I hear are words
Here we go again
Another fight you win
Guess I shouldn't tell you how I feel
You make me think that I'm to blame
Well can't you see this dying flame
And I need so much more show me something real
Cause you're just a word man
Can't hold me with your hands
Make promises you can't ever keep
Oh you're just a word man
Tell me I'll never understand but you make it so hard to believe
So I keep on waiting for the day
When I will feel all that you say
All I hear are words
And all I hear, all I hear
All I hear are words. Words, words, words (show me something)
And all I hear, all I hear
All I hear are words. Words, words, words (show me something)
Cause you're just a word man
Can't hold me with your hands
Make promises you can't ever keep
You're just a word man
Can't hold me with your hands
Make promises you can't ever keep
Oh you're just a word man
Tell me I'll never understand
But you make it so hard to believe
So I'll keep waiting for the day
When I will feel all that you say
All I hear are words
