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 begin to show it We're terrified 'cause we're heading straight for it, might get it You've 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 then 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 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 coming back, and you just don't know when You want to cry, but there's nothing coming 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 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
