Louder Than Words

Liner Notes
#acousticonetake
Wrote this one while driving from Effingham to Murphysboro IL. I'd waken up with the opening line about words of love being sung out of tune. Then I had a couple two three hours in the car to find a melody and flesh out the lyrics. Digging the simplicity.
Lyrics
Words of love
Sung out of tune
Whatever happened
To me and you?
Words of love
Written on a page
Torn and tattered
Yellow with age
A broken vow
Speaks louder
Than words of love
Red roses to say you're sorry
When yellow roses would do
And a card, handwritten
Words of love from you
Words of love
Sad and true
Whatever happened
With me and you?
Words of love
Written on the page
Torn and tattered
Yellow with age
A broken vow
Speaks louder
Than words of love
(instrumental verse)
Words of love
Sung out of tune
Whatever happened
To me and you?
Words of love
Written on a page
Torn and tattered
Yellow with age
A broken vow
Speaks louder
A broken vow
Speaks louder
A broken vow
Speaks louder
Than words of love
