Words Needed and No Words Needed

We human have spoken and written languages to communicate and we have nonverbal communication. That is the process of communicating through sending and receiving wordless messages. Some times we seem not to need words and sometimes we not have words to express our feelings. Sometimes it's my lack of English vocabulary and sometimes I just not know what to say. This week I had some conversations with friends and the theme was much often about communication. It seems to be a week of words or no words.

With the word "WORD" in my head I surfed on the internet and found an album that was released in 1998 named: Scripture: No Word Needed. It is the first album of a solo project called Scripture by French Canadian composer Jean-Pierre Isaac. Track 5, "no word needed" is a instrumental one and track 10, "Words Needed", features a female singer only named Cusy (mistakenly written Cussy in the album). Not much is known about this singer, other than that she is Italian, and resides in Montreal, Quebec, Canada.

SCRIPTURE: WORDS NEEDED lyrics

I can hear you
Can’t you hear me
I can feel you
Can you feel me
Your shadow
That I can’t see
But you’re nowhere near me

Where are, where are you
Where have you been all my life
Show me please show me
How to speak your language

Cause I just need the right words to get to your heart
Cause I just need the right words to get to your heart

Can you see me

Can you see me

I am right here right beside you

Can’t you see

Can’t you see

I have been trying to reach

Where are you, where are you,

Where have you been all my life

Show me please show me

How to pronounce your name

Cause I just need the right words to get to your heart

Cause I just need the right words to get to your heart

Where are you, where are you,

Where have you been all my life

I just need the right words to get to your heart

Cause I just need the right words to get to your heart

Cause I just need the right words to get to your heart

Cause I just need the right words to get to your heart

The poem "NO WORDS NEEDED" by John W Townsend, I dedicate to Rod and Tim.

Did I hear you speak

before you opened your mouth

was it that I

know you so well,

yet sometimes

you manage to fool my mind

say something

quite off the wall.

After all these years

are we so in tune

that a look is longer

than a sentance,

and all the words

on a spell checker brain

could never

compete with our love.
