If I Say Your Name

[Verse 1] I wrote your name a hundred times In little hearts across my mind Then crossed it out and smiled alone Like it was safer left unknown The morning felt like sugar snow Pink sky, soft wind, a secret glow I held my feelings in my hands Like paper stars I didn’t plan [Pre-Chorus] Every step toward you Makes my whole world shake I keep rehearsing brave But my voice might break Still, the strings are rising Like they know the truth Maybe this small heartbeat Is leading me to you [Chorus] If I say your name Will the whole sky change? Will the silence bloom Like flowers in this room? I’ve been hiding all this light Under borrowed smiles at night But today my heart won’t wait If I say your name [Post-Chorus] Say your name, name, name Like an echo in the spring Say your name, name, name And the violins will sing Oh-oh, bright and sweet My heart runs ahead of me Say your name, name, name Maybe love begins this way [Verse 2] Your smile is simple, soft, and warm The kind that quiets every storm And every time you look my way The ordinary turns to day I kept pretending I was fine Just another friend in line But there’s a truth inside my chest That won’t stay hidden with the rest [Pre-Chorus] Every glance from you Pulls me closer in I can feel the courage Starting under my skin And the synths are shining Like a second sun Maybe all this trembling Means the moment’s come [Chorus] If I say your name Will the whole sky change? Will the silence bloom Like flowers in this room? I’ve been hiding all this light Under borrowed smiles at night But today my heart won’t wait If I say your name [Bridge] Just piano, just these hands Holding all I understand I was scared that honesty Would make you turn away from me But if I keep this love inside It will only learn to hide So here I am, no more delay I like you more than words can say [Final Chorus – Key Up] When I say your name Yes, the whole sky changed And the silence bloomed Like spring inside the room I was hiding all this light Now it’s shining in plain sight And today my heart was brave When I said your name [Outro] Your name, your name My February light Your name, your name Everything feels bright
