about

The gratitude and love I had towards this new person who came into my life at the time: "Oh, to you, my heart I owe thee for quickening my soul." That's exactly how that early love felt.

lyrics

WHEN YOU SAY

VERSE I:
At the fork of the road,
This choice is finally mine.
But I am tired, I am torn.
If I go straight my heart will break,
And if I turn the other way,
All my work is thrown away.
But I’ve felt cold and tasted bitter
Deep within my soul,
Promises and dreams he’s shattered
All throughout our time.
Until now, I‘ve seen darkness.

CHORUS I:
But when you say my name,
It’s like the sweetest song I’ve heard.
And when you say, “Please stay”
My heart flutters like a bird.
Oh, no words could speak these moments
Embedded in my soul.

VERSE II:
Letting go of all the years is easier said than done.
Strip away all my fears for the times I’ve turned and run.
Memories of little moments,
Like tiny drops of sun,
Very few and far between,
Chasing time for the next one,
The few and far between.
So I learned to only seek them,
There inside my dreams.


CHORUS II:
But then you say my name,
And it’s like honey in my tea.
And when you say, “Please stay”
A joy comes over me.
Oh, no armies could every stop me
From pouring out my soul.

BRIDGE:
Let go of the fragments
Let go of the pain
Farewell to the past,
I see a light before me.

CHORUS III:
‘Cause when you say my name,
It’s tenderly and kind,
And when you say, “Please stay”
It’s genuinely divine.
To you, my heart I owe thee
For quickening my soul.

My soul--- oh, oh
Quickening my soul.
