*Whisperth¤my¤name*
Woke up in the middle
Of the night
Thought I heard a
Whisper of my name
So soft, melodic
I thought
It a dream
Tried to return to
Sandman
But once more you
Whispered my name
Like a prayer in the night
I thought my head
Playeth tricks on my heart
Tryna convince my head
That you're long gone
Long left me in the dark
To imagine your calling me
Breaks my heart
To know you still
Thinketh of me
Breaks me beyond repair
Because once you
Whispered my name
I despaired to never
Forget the way
You whispered my name
To never forget
Our late night rendezvous
And stolen moonlight
Kisses under the branch
