lyrics

Oh, she lays there shaking on the ground
It's been awhile since anybody's found her
Oh, she lays there waiting for the sound
And when it comes, oh, how it astounds her

Because your name held between the lips of
Someone who loves you is a lullaby
Oh, how the letters slip when they say goodbye

He plays her like his favorite mandolin
Singing, “Please, my dear, just let me in”
Something in her soothes his aching soul
Singing, “Please, my dear, don’t let me go,”

Because your name held between the lips of
Someone who loves you is a lullaby
Oh, how the letters slip when they say goodbye

But you took 22 letters with you when you left
Now the alphabet
Has changed your name into a four letter word
But you still say mine
Like I’m your world

Because your name held between the lips of
Someone who loves you is as sure as the skies
And, oh, how the letters slip when they say
Darling, this is it
Oh, how the letters slip when they say goodbye
