Bold Face

When words have failed us
And I've stated every case,
Blue in the face, blue in the face

To no avail, I'll still rephrase it one more way
In blacks and whites, and blacks and grays

And you will reread it when I'm gone
And words are all that I've become
You may believe it when you see it
With a bolder face

So please just take this
And once you read it put it in
A dusty place for rainy day

Because time will take us
And I fear that all the facts of us will fade,
These words will stay

And you will reread it when I'm gone
And words are all that I've become
You may believe it when you see it
With a bolder face

In a million years from now
They'll excavate a love so great
A love so...

And you will reread it when we're gone
And words are all that we've become
When words have failed us and we're done,
I loved you more than anyone

And you will reread it when I'm gone
And words are all that I've become
And you will believe it when you see it
With a bolder face
