Intro

(or /Eb) (or )

[1st verse]

Slow down

This is such a blur

(or )

Tell me what's the hurry now

 Have we been running round in circles

Missing all that we could be

 You say it's not too late

Chorus

]

We are words

 On pages that we've left unturned

 An ending no one's ever heard

 We are a story slowly unfolding

Beautiful words

[2nd verse]

I could walk across the ocean

With you walking next to me

And you could melt away this winter

Now we're starting over

We will see it's not too late

Chorus

We are words

 On pages that we've left unturned

 An ending no one's ever heard

 We are a story slowly unfolding

 Beautiful words (go right into bridge)

Bridge

 That last when everything else has passed

 Even when all the stars are gone

 I know every single beautiful word that we were will live on

Pre-chorus

I know it's not too late

Chorus

We are words

 On pages that we've left unturned

 An ending no one's ever heard

 We are a story slowly unfolding

 Beautiful words

 We are a story slowly unfolding
