Say, say anything Your eyes tell all that you won’t show You won’t show The record’s spinning while you dance with your temporary ghost Your temporary ghost
Familiar words bid you farewell Your hands are empty and what you held Has left you here with Nothing but a name But a name
Say, say everything I’ll try to give you what you need What you need Falling, so much second-guessing It hurts to watch you bleed It hurts to watch you bleed
Oh you try to sing a different song So hard to know where it went wrong The faces change but pictures stay the same Stay the same
Hold your place when the words are on the wall and you can’t find your fire Escape I’m running for you now so don’t let go And trees hang low and clouds suffocate the sun so you can see Put a signal in the sky for me
Don’t, don’t say a thing ‘cause darling oh I already know I already know Yeah love is waiting this is all just a temporary ghost A temporary ghost
Familiar words will greet you well Your hands will hold more than you held You’ll see the sun shine when you hear your name When you hear your name
Hold your place when the words are on the wall and you can’t find your fire Escape I’m running for you now so don’t let go And trees hang low and clouds suffocate the sun so you can see Put a signal in the sky for me
Oh hold your place when the words are on the wall and you can’t find your Fire escape I’m running for you now so don’t let go And trees hang low and clouds suffocate the sun so you can see Put a signal in the sky for me Put a signal in the sky for me For me
