Sometimes I Just Have To Say Your Name |
With the sweet drip of every raindrop |
Time brings you closer to me |
And with each new sign at every train-stop |
Another hour without you is consigned to history |
And with each tick of my alarm clock |
I get crazy for the days to get to you |
When I can hold you and kiss you have you |
Instead of staring at some photo like a fool |
But as day turns to night there’s this hopelessness to fight |
When I think that I might not make it through |
But honey, sometimes I just have to say your name |
To hear it hanging in the air, to know it sounds the same |
And sometimes when I’m blue, I know just what to do |
To keep the blues at bay you know I only have to say your name |
So this morning I picked up a paper |
In the useless descent of the rain |
While partners in heartbreak the whole world over |
Lie and cheat just the same |
And the headlines proclaim everything has changed |
Love can’t save you now |
As each little motion of my wristwatch |
Holds up my faith somehow |
But as day turns to night there’s this hopelessness to fight |
When I think that I might not make it through |
But honey, sometimes I just have to say your name |
To hear it hanging in the air, to know it sounds the same |
And sometimes when I’m blue, I know just what to do |
To keep the blues at bay you know I only have to say your name |
When I’ve used up all my patience |
When your letters have been read twenty times through |
I can drink all the wine in this place of mine |
But it ain’t no replacement |
It ain’t no replacement for you |
