Miguel Bosé - They're only words lyrics

They're only words Are they written in the wind? Before you're out of reach Will they all get blown away? They're only words Whispers softly in the dark Did we both believe They could stand the light of day? They're only words I can't hold them in my arms As the echoes call I can feel them slip away With every grain of sand That washes out to sea I count them one by one I count the cost of love The words are all I have Until the tide has turned To bring you back to me If all the stars that shine on me shine on you If all the natural desire is breaking through We're told the promises of love are just a summer long They say they're only words They could be wrong They're only words Cast on the water as it flows Though it seems so clear We can all be swept away With every grain of sand That washes out to sea I count them one by one I count the cost of love The words are all I have Until the tide has turned To bring you back to me If all the stars that shine on me shine on you If all the natural desire is breaking through We're told the promises of love are just a summer long They say they're only words They could be wrong
