Say When

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 began to show it

We're terrified, 'cause we're heading straight for it

Might get it

You've been the song playing on in 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 breakin' down and you're breathing slowly

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 comin' close and then even closer

We bring it in, but we go no further

We're separate, two ghost 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 across you, lost and broken

You're coming to, but you're slow in waking

You start to shake, you still haven't spoken

What happened?

They're comin' back and you just don't know when

You wanna cry, but there's nothin' comin'

They'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
