[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
