When you spoke my name
I could close my eyes and feel
How safe I sounded in your voice
How close to the sky you brought me
With a single sound
You lifted me
And my name on your lips
Was not said the way everyone else said it
My name of your lips
Sounded like
I had the key to heaven
I had your heart in my hands
I had your happiness in my soul
I had all the things you needed
In your voice I was perfect
But like the heart you took away from me
So did the way
You spoke my name

(I never would have dropped your heart
If only you would have left it in my hands
Instead of taking it to someone else
Who's hands will get slippery
And perhaps your heart will drop
And I won't say
I told you so
But your heart would have been safe in my hands)
