"Just A Word" lyrics - SHARI ULRICH

I thought it was just a word
One tiny grain of sand
Like so many others spoken
And lost upon the wind

I thought it was just a look
A silent passing glance
Like so many others never noticed
Never planned

Oh these well intended words
Have fallen into shame
And what I said and what you heard
Will never be the same

I thought it was just a word
Not a moment to regret
But what I can't remember now
Is what you can't forget

I thought it was just a smile
And a soothing simple touch
But what I though so harmless now
Is what you cannot trust

Oh these well intended words
Have fallen into shame
And what I said and what you heard
Will never be the same

I thought it was just a word
So insignificant
Like so many others spoken
And lost upon the wind

I thought it was only you
Turning it around
Now I see a part of me
In every piece we've found

As we take these well intended words
And learn them all by name
And what I said and what you heard
May someday be the same
Learn them all by name
And what I said and what you heard
May someday be the same

I thought it was just a word
