Every Word

Every word you say,
Turns away
Every sound you make,
Makes you ache
Every flower that you send,
Will one day decay
Every night you dread,
Will one day be a day

Every song you make,
Will be a hit someday
Every loss that’s on the books,
Will be a gain someday
Every face of sorrow,
Will smile again someday
‘Cause every word you say,
Will change the world someday

Every word you say …
Every sound you make …
Every flower that you send …
Every night you dread …

‘Cause every word you say,
Can take away the pain
Every song you make,
Can open up the gates,
Every seed you plant,
Will be a tree someday
And every knife you break,
Will be a pen someday

Every song you play,
Will touch someone today
Every child you miss,
Will come around today
Every thought you think,
Will come alive today
‘Cause every word you say
Will change the world today
