When You Say My Name Lyrics by The Overtones

Higher

2012

When you say my name
Say my name
Say my name
Say my
Oh when you say my name
Say my name
Say my name
Say my
Oh when you say my name
Its just as it seems
Im the cat that got the cream
I wonder when im going to wake from this dream
Your ten out of ten
And every man that ever met ya
Knows how lucky i am
Im sitting here on cloud nine
Theres nothing here but clear blue sky
Theres no thunder near
That sound you hear
Thats just the sound of the breaking of hearts
Shattered dreams now falling apart
The sound of tear drops falling
Cause its my name youre calling
Thats just the sound of the breaking of hearts
Crashing down wherever you are
So uninivited tear drops are falling
Cause its my name youre calling
When you say my name
Say my name
Say my name
Say my
Oh when you say my name
If love was a race
Then maybe when it comes to you
I know that there ain't no second place
No one believed
That a story of a boy like me
Could end up happy here
But youre sitting here on cloud nine
The same blue sky as mine
Same clouds above disappear
Thats just the sound of the breaking of hearts
Shattered dreams now falling apart
The sound of tear drops falling
Cause its my name youre calling
Thats just the sound of the breaking of hearts
Crashing down wherever you are
So uninivited tear drops are falling
Cause its my name youre calling
You say my name and all the hearts go boom (x3)
Thats just the sound of the breaking of hearts
Shattered dreams now falling apart
The sound of tear drops falling
Cause its my name youre calling
Thats just the sound of the breaking of hearts
Crashing down wherever you are
So uninivited tear drops are falling
Cause its my name youre calling
You say my name and all the hearts go boom (x3)
Oh
I get a feeling
Get a feeling
Get a feeling
That the hearts go boom
Oh when you say my name
