more than words

Saying 'I Love you'
Is not the words I want to hear from you
It's not that I want you not to say
But if you only knew
How easy it would be to show me how you feel
More than words
Is all you have to do to make it real
Then you wouldn't have to say
That you love me 'cause I'd already know

What would you do if my heart was torn in two?
More than words to show you feel
That your love for me is real
What would you say if I took those words away?
Then you couldn't make things new
Just by saying 'I love you'

More than words
Now that I've tried to
Talk to you and make you understand
All you have to do is
Close your eyes and just reach out your hands
And touch me, hold me close
Don't ever let me go

More than words
Is all I ever needed you to show
Then you wouldn't have to say
That you love me 'cause I'd already know

What would you do if my heart was torn in two?
More than words to show you feel
That your love for me is real
What would you say if I took those words away?
Then you couldn't make things new
Just by saying 'I love you'

Apos o show de talentos no acampamento, alguns dos aparatos e instrumentos continuaram montados no palco, e um pessoal comecou a fazer um pos-show. Uma das garotas comecou a cantar essa musica, que fazia muito tempo que eu nao escutava. Cheguei em casa e fui ouvi-la novamente, e comecei a perceber quao incrivelmente pertinente e' essa letra - nao apenas no aspecto romantico, mas em todos os aspectos relacionais, desde familia, ate amigos e inclusive relacionamentos amorosos.

Ela aponta muito pras palavras bonitas, mas na verdade sem muito fundamento, que usamos - 'te amo, estou com saudades' dentre outras. Pode ser legal ouvir vez ou outra, mas o falar muito nao dizer nada acaba sendo desgastante, acaba que as acoes valorizam as palavras, mas as palavras sem acoes perdem significado. Entao, como e' dito nos versos "Saying 'I Love you'/Is not the words I want to hear from you/It's not that I want you not to say", nao e' que ninguem queira ouvir as palavras, mas querem ouvir quando e' a verdade e ha' fundamentos por tras disso - fundamentos que se manifestam de outras formas tambem.

No verso ' what would you do if my heart was torn in two'  aponta o aspecto que quando uma pessoa realmente ama outra, ela se importa com seu bem estar e faria algo a respeito do estado supracitado, e atraves de coisinhas assim nem seriam necessarias as palavras.
