But for the second time, the right words failed him.

For a moment, it looked as though words had failed her.

He was about to speak; for a moment words failed him.

In the past, words had always failed me at moments like this.

I stared at him for a long moment during which words failed me completely.

How men's words fail in all these: First, when used without any ideas.

He could not bring himself to say that awful word, failed.

His mouth was open, as though the words of introduction had failed him.

The words never failed to bring a smile to her lips.

Words failed me at this last find.but not so my companions!
