Actions Speak Louder

Without love
Reason is so blind
Within your heart
You seek to be kind
When your methods of madness have failed
And trail to the distance
Keep the silence
Hold your tongue
And see how I listen

Who was it told me?

Actions speak louder
Than words that you say
People in power
And people at play

Here's the man on the fence
Keeps asking, basking in the shade
Of the next world's vision
Where idle hands
Forget what they've made
Hear the motors outside
They urge us to move on
And automation reigns supreme
Like a dream you can lean on

Somebody told me

Actions speak louder
Than words that you say
People in power
And people at play

Take me to midnight
With no more delay
Somebody told me
Actions speak louder
Than words that you say

Without love
You're set up for a fall
When the shouts become whispers
And sleep like pure wine comes to call

You must remember

Actions speak louder
Than words that you say
People in power
And people at play

Actions speak louder
Than words that you say
Take me to midnight
With no more delay

Who was it told me?

Actions speak louder
Than words that you say
Actions speak louder
Than words that you say

Somebody told me
Actions speak louder
Who was it told me?
Actions speak louder
You must remember
Actions speak louder
