Sometimes I Just Have To Say Your Name Lyrics

With the sweet drip of every raindrop 

Time brings you closer to me 

And with each new sign at every train-stop 

Another hour without you is consigned to history 



And with each tick of my alarm clock 

I get crazy for the days to get to you 

When I can hold you and kiss you and have you 

Instead of staring at some photo like a fool 



But as day turns to night there's this hopelessness to fight 

When I think that I might not make it through 



But honey sometimes I just have to say your name 

To hear it hanging in the air, to know it sounds the same 

And sometimes when I'm blue, I know just what to do 

To keep the blues at bay you know I only have to say your name 



So this morning I picked up the paper 

In the useless descent of the rain 

While partners in heartbreak the whole world over 

Lie and cheat just the same 

And the headlines proclaim everything has changed 

Love can't save you now 

As each little motion of my writswatch 

Holds up my faith somehow 



But as day turns to night there's this hopelessness to fight 

When I think that I might not make it through 



But honey sometimes I just have to say your name 

To hear it hanging in the air, to know it sounds the same 

And sometimes when I'm blue, I know just what to do 

To keep the blues at bay you know I only have to say your name 



When I've used up all my patience 

When your letters have been read twenty times through 

I can drink all the wine in this place of mine 

But it ain't no replacement 

It ain't no replacement for you
