Petra V1 C1 V2 C2 T [V1] 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 [C1] 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 [V2] 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 [C2] 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 [T] Simple words will never quite express My gratitude to You Until I cross the barrier Mortal words will have to do
