Words

Anders Edenroth (b. 1963)

Words

A letter and a letter on a string

Will hold forever humanity spellbound

Words

Possession of the beggar and the king

Everybody, everyday

You and I, we all can say

Words

Regarded as a complicated tool

Created by man, implicated by mankind

Words

Obsession of the genius and the fool

Everybody, everyday,

Everywhere and everyway

Words!

Find them, you can use them

Say them, you can hear them

Write them, you can read them

Love them, fear them

Words

Transmitted as we're fitted from the start

Received by all and we're sentenced to a life with

Words

Impression of the stupid and the smart

Everybody, everyday

You and I, we all can say

Words

Inside your head can come alive as they're said

Softly, loudly, modestly or proudly

Words

Expression by the living and the dead

Everybody, everyday

Everywhere and everyway

Words!

Find them, you can use them

Say them, you can hear them

Write them, you can read them

Love them, fear them

Words

A letter and a letter on a string

“Words” was performed by the Houston Chamber Choir at their 2015-2016 season's “Just Gettin’ Started.”
