[Verse 1]
Paid for what’s believed
It’s nowhere in my mind

Was it something I said
Spoon-like a knife from within
She laid asleep there the whole time
And it wears under my skin

[Chorus]
You asked me in private
If I wrote that song about you
You said that it stuck with you then
That it meant everything
If I had missed that transfer
There’d be no songs left to sing

[Verse 2]
Now I’ve lost you both
Please save your prayers
I was only a kid
Alone with your God up above
Mistaken small moments of love
And it all comes diving in

[Chorus]
You asked me in private
If I wrote that song about you
You said that it stuck with you then
That it meant everything
If I had missed that transfer
There’d be no songs left to sing
[Bridge]
I’d give anything
Just to hear you speak my name

I’d give anything
Just to hear you speak my name
(Speak my name)

I’d give anything
Just to hear you speak my name
(Speak my name)

I’d give anything
Just to hear you speak my name
(Speak my name)

[Chorus]
You asked me in private
If I wrote that song about you
You said that it stuck with you then
That it meant everything
If I had missed that transfer
There’d be no songs left to sing
(To sing)

[Outro]
Speak my name
I’d give anything
Just to hear you speak my name

Speak my name
