I saw Your picture hanging on the wall 
Just an artist rendering that was all 
The way You looked down in Your agony 
Jogged my memory 
And helped me to see 
If a picture's worth a thousand words 
Then it won't help me at all 
Only words are never gonna say 
What I feel for You today 

More than a thousand words won't say 
More than my life will not repay 
More than a thousand things I do 
Won't make it up to You 

I stopped a moment sitting all alone 
Without a waiting call on the phone 
Looked like a picture from a magazine 
More serenity than I've ever seen 
And if words cannot describe this day 
Or the beauty of this scene 
Tell me, how can I expect the words I say 
To reflect the things I mean 

More than a thousand words won't tell 
How You forgave me when I fell 
More than a thousand words won't do 
To say I love You 

Simple words will never quite express 
My gratitude to You 
Until I cross the barrier 
Mortal words will have to do
