[I Could Only] Whisper Your Name lyrics

Somebody was spreading rumors,

'Bout better days a comin'.

Why was I hummin',

As if I knew,

One and the same?

But I just whispered your name.

Somebody was sayin' somethin'

'Bout there bein' an end to tyranny.

But when they asked me

What would I do

If that day came,

I only whispered your name.

Everyone got their own opinion

And protects their own dominion.

No doubt, for them, it's true.

But I tell them what I really believe:

My only worry is protecting you, yeah.

No one should ever be lonely.

We'd all find somebody to care.

Ask me, if I dare

To answer who

Can carry that flame.

I just whisper your name.

[Instrumental]

Everyone got their own opinion,

And protects their own dominion.

No doubt, for them, it's true.

But I tell them what I really believe:

My only worry is protecting you.

Nobody should ever be lonely.

We'd all find someone to care, well.

Ask me, if I dare

To answer who

Could carry that flame.

Carry that flame, yeah.

Carry that flame.

I just whisper . . .your name.
