Madonna - Words lyrics

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
