| All I wanted a perfect life
|
| Some perfect kids and a perfect wife
|
| Some perfect days and some perfect nights
|
| Even though I’m flawed, I should be alright
|
| A child with special needs didn’t fit in my plans
|
| I’m a needy man, wanting more that what you put in his hands
|
| All I wanted was a perfect family core
|
| Now I’m envying the family next door
|
| Trying not to trust therapy more than God
|
| I am walking the street where fear and love collide
|
| I am learning in weakness, you still gotta serve
|
| And my connection with my boys is way deeper than words
|
| But damn, words, I thrive with 'em
|
| Words are my life, my career, I survive with 'em
|
| I’m given a life sentence that words can’t fix
|
| Now we both live in a world that don’t make sense
|
| Yeah, maybe words don’t say much
|
| Maybe we don’t need words to communicate our love
|
| My sons are not a punishment or an accident
|
| Just a little abstract masterpiece of what the Master did
|
| I try not to doubt the power of prayer
|
| But many times, I just feel like the power ain’t there
|
| Some days I’m feeling good, some days I’m feeling torn
|
| I’m getting praise for activities a father should perform
|
| I get applause when I excel, thank you
|
| Is there grace for me when I fail and I’m feeling shameful?
|
| Yeah, well, maybe words don’t say much
|
| Maybe we don’t need words to communicate our love
|
| My father said he needed greater trust in the Lord
|
| And the Lord used cancer so he could trust in Him more
|
| He died without complaining, that’s when I understood
|
| He taught me more in his silence than a sermon ever could
|
| Words can be lies to help us disguise our phoniness
|
| Feeling insecure in the midst of pride and loneliness
|
| I learned the meaning of contentment really fast
|
| Wanting change while appreciating everything that you have
|
| Yeah, maybe words don’t say much
|
| Maybe we don’t need words to communicate our love
|
| Maybe words don’t say much
|
| Maybe I should just learn to shut up
|
| Only you know
|
| Only you know
|
| Ohhh, ohhhh, ohhhh
|
| Only you know
|
| Only you know
|
| Ohhh, ohhhh, ohhhh
|
| Truth is your presence speaks much louder than when a choir sings
|
| I never knew I’ll find joy up in the smallest things
|
| The counsellor said «Live long, love strong, stick together
|
| This is a thorny rose you two will carry forever
|
| Find value in your interactions, and not in your treasure
|
| Find strength in Jesus, increase your faith in good measure
|
| Avoid evil, your kids need a home that is peaceful
|
| Don’t be a passive man, understand that your family needs you
|
| Pray for healing, hoping they find a cause»
|
| But after all, I resolved, you are not a problem to solve
|
| Maybe I wouldn’t change you
|
| Maybe I’m just unable to see your potential
|
| Because I’m blinded by the labels
|
| Yeah, maybe words don’t say much
|
| Maybe we don’t need words to communicate our love
|
| Maybe words don’t say much
|
| In that moment, we had a breakthrough
|
| Silence, I want to thank you
|
| In that moment, we had a breakthrough
|
| Silence, I want to thank you |
