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.
