Say When Songtext

von The Fray

I see you there, don't know where you come from
Unaware of a stare from someone
Don't appear to care that I saw you
And I want you

What's your name? 'Cause I have to know it
You let me in and begin to show it
We're terrified 'cause we're heading straight for it,
Might get it

You been the song playing on the background
All along but you're turning up now
And everyone is rising to meet you, to greet you

Turn around and you're walking toward me
I'm breaking down and you're breathing slowly
You say the word and I will be your man, your man
Say when

And my own two hands will comfort you
Tonight, tonight say when
And my own two arms will carry you
Tonight, tonight

We're coming close and even closer
We bring it in but we go no further
We're separate, two ghosts in one mirror,
No nearer

Later on if it turns to chaos
Hurricane coming all around us
See the crack, pull it back from the window,
You stay low
Say when

And my own two hands will comfort you
Tonight, tonight say when
And my own two arms will carry you
Tonight, tonight

I come acorss you lost and broken
You're coming too but you're slow in waking
You start to shake, you still haven't spoken,
What happened

They're coming back and you just don't know when
You want to cry but there's nothing coming
Ther're gonna push until you give in or say when

Now we're here and it turns to chaos
Hurricane coming all around us
Double crack throws you back from the window,
You stay low

It all began with a man and country
Every plan turns another century
Around again, another nation fallen

Maybe god can be on both sides
Of the gun, never understood why
Some of us never get it so good, so good

Some of this was here before us
All of this will go after us
It never stops until we give in, give in
Or say when

And my own two hands will comfort you
Tonight, tonight say when
And my own two arms will carry you
Tonight, tonight say when
And my own two hands will comfort you
Tonight, tonight
