We bitch and we fight,
diss each other on sight,
but this thing we do
These times together
rain or shine or stormy weather
this thing we do
With world-weary grace
We’ve taken our places
We could curse it or nurse it and give it a name
Or stay home by the fire,
Felled by desire,
Stoking the flames
But we’re here for the ride
It's louder than words
this thing that we do
louder than words
the way it unfurls
It's louder than words
the sum of our parts
the beat of our hearts
is louder than words
Louder than words
The strings bend and slide
as the hours glide by
an old pair of shoes,
your favorite blues,
gonna tap out the rhythm
Let's go with the flow,
wherever it goes,
We're more than alive
It's louder than words
this thing that we do
louder than words
the way it unfurls
It's louder than words
the sum of our parts
the beat of our hearts
is louder than words
Louder than words
Louder than words
this thing they call soul
is there with a pulse
louder than words
Louder than words
