More Than Words

You know what it’s like from the side of the street
Fingerless gloves and a soul that’s been beat
All the hopes in the world two years before
Only one you have now is a lottery card

Sign in the yard the land lord is hard to shake from your shoulders
Bills stacked high, you can see her cry with eyes that smolder
But a paycheck could dry her eyes, make her laugh and maybe smile

You wouldn’t know oh, you couldn’t though,
You wouldn’t know, much more than words
You wouldn’t know oh, you couldn’t though,
You wouldn’t know, much more than words

No food to eat or room to sleep the beds are filled
Spending the night shaking in fright it will all be over
And soon the sun will rise and everything will be alright

You wouldn’t know oh, you couldn’t though,
You wouldn’t know, much more than words
You wouldn’t know oh, you couldn’t though,
You wouldn’t know, much more than words

Sign on the door the brush on the floor right where you had left it
It’s time to restore what we had before
‘Cuz a piece is missing, and oh the sun did rise it really did it did
I swear
You wouldn’t know oh, you couldn’t though,
You wouldn’t know, much more than words
You wouldn’t know oh, you couldn’t though,
You wouldn’t know, much more than words
