Original Off-Broadway Cast of Emojiland
A Thousand More Words
[POLICE OFFICER]
You were here, now you're gone
By a thread now I'm just barely hangin' on
You were brave
You were strong
You were beautiful
But now without you, how'll I get along

People say a picture's worth a thousand words
But I don't need a picture to remember you, baby
I don't know what I'm gonna do without you, baby
I don't need a picture
I don't want a picture
I want a thousand more words
A thousand more nights
To make you feel my love,
to make up for all those silly fights
I want a thousand more chances
to know what we had was real
I want a thousand more words with the one I adore
and then I want a thousand more

Yesterday, life was grand
How we ended up here, I don't understand
But I swear, I will try
to see the joy around me close as how we would always get back
People say a picture's worth a thousand words
but I don't need a picture to remember you, baby
I don't know what I'm gonna do without you, baby
I don't need a picture
I don't want a picture
I want a thousand more words
A thousand more days
to share with you a love so true
in a thousand different ways
I want a thousand more chances
to know what we had was real
I want a thousand more words with the one I adore
and then I want a thousand more

You made me feel wanted
You made me feel free
You showed me all the myself that I couldn't see
And here you go, just teaching me again
Woah
But what I wouldn't give
for a thousand more words
A thousand more laughs
to hear you say it's all okay
To be my better half
I want a thousand more lifetimes
to know what we had was real
I want a thousand more words with the one I adore
A thousand more
and then I want a thousand more words
