Lyrics

THE UNSPOKEN WORDS
Words & music by James A. Nelson 1987

THE UNSPOKEN WORDS
THE VOWS THAT WE HAVE SAVED
THE CREST
THE LOVE THAT WE?VE MADE

THE UNSPOKEN WORDS
THE THOUGHTS THAT HINDER MY SLEEP
THE HEART
THE POUNDING OF A DISTANT BEAT

THE UNSPOKEN WORDS
THE SONGS THAT HAVE BEEN SUNG BEFORE
THE SANDS
THE TIDE HAD WASHED ASHORE

IN THE MORNING
THE EARLIEST MORNING
BEFORE THE COCK?S CROW
AND YOU KNOW
I GO (I GO)

IN THE SILENCE
THE HEART STOPPING SILENCE
TOGETHER WE LAY
AND YOU PRAY
I STAY (I STAY)

(Repeat)

THE UNSPOKEN WORDS
