Whenever I say your name, Whenever I call to mind your face Whenever bread's in my mouth, Whatever the sweetest wine that I taste Whenever your memory feeds my soul, Whenever got broken becomes whole Whenever I'm filled with doubts that we will be together
Wherever I lay me down, Wherever I put my head to sleep Whenever I hurt and cry, Whenever I got to lie awake and weep Whenever I kneel to pray, Whenever I need to find a way I'm calling out your name
Whenever those dark clouds hide the moon Whenever this world has gotten so strange I know that something's gonna change Something's gonna change
Whenever I say your name, Whenever I say your name, I'm already praying, I'm already praying I'm already filled with a joy that I can't explain Wherever I lay me down, Wherever I rest my weary head to sleep Whenever I hurt and cry, Whenever I got to lie awake and weep Whenever I'm on the floor Whatever it was that I believed before Whenever I say your name, Whenever I say it loud, I'm already praying
Whenever this world has got me down, Whenever I shed a tear Whenever the TV makes me mad, Whenever I'm paralyzed with fear Whenever those dark clouds fill the sky, Whenever I lose the reason why Whenever I'm filled with doubts that we will be together
Whenever the sun refuse to shine, Whenever the skies are pouring rain Whatever I lost I thought was mine Whenever I close my eyes in pain Whenever I kneel to pray, Whenever I need to find a way I'm calling out your name
Whenever this dark begins to fall Whenever I'm vulnerable and small Whenever I feel like I could die Whenever I'm holding back the tears that I cry
Whenever I say your name, Whenever I call to mind your face, I'm already praying Whatever bread's in my mouth, Whatever the sweetest wine that I taste Wherever I lay me down, Wherever I rest my weary head to sleep Whenever I hurt and cry, Whenever I'm forced to lie awake and have to weep Whenever I'm on the floor Whatever it was that I believed before Whenever I say your name, Whenever I say it loud, I'm already praying
Whenever I say your name, No matter how long it takes, One day we'll be together
Whenever I say your name, Let there be no mistake That day will last forever
