These Words

words and music by Udo Klopke

I sat down to write a few words as an apologize
I know that I´ve hurt you so bad, and now I realize
As the dust has settled again
I see a reflection of me, that I´ve never been

They can fulfill you, they kiss and they kill you – these words
They cannot describe you, they hurt and they blind you - these words

The papers today say there´s a crisis somewhere in Africa
Chaos and Riots and we all think: “How could it come that far?”
They believed everything said
In the end they found out what really went on in their heads

They can fulfill you, they kiss and they kill you – these words
They cannot describe you, they hurt and they blind you - these words
They build a wall, tear it down, lift you up, but hurt you so bad,
They can upset you, they hide and they dress you – these words

I have a confession to make, that refers to the both of us
A simple succession of words, and I am serious
I promise to be good to you
In good times and in bad, in sickness and in health, I will love and I will honor you

They can fulfill you, they kiss and they kill you – these words
They cannot describe you, they hurt and they blind you - these words
They build a wall, tear it down, lift you up, but hurt you so bad,
They can upset you, they hide and they dress you, inspire and discourage you, get the best out of you these words
