Kinley When You Speak Her Name
I'm thinkin' about how I don't wanna know who you are thinkin' about
‘Cause I know that it's not me
And I thought I was cool, but my heart can't take loving you
So I'm thinkin' about all the ways we'd never work out
I'm thinkin' about how I should let the sun shine in more
I'm thinkin' about how I've got the time, but I know you're always at her door
I thought I was cool, but you collect hearts like precious jewels
So I'm thinkin' about all the ways I'd never stand out
But you taught me to be free and I'm trying hard to be
But this lump in my throat when you speak her name, it won't leave easily
I'm thinkin' about how I wanna hold your hand and call you ‘baby.'
I'm thinkin' about how you are ushering me out the back door lately
I thought I was cool, but my head can't take these up and downs cues
So I'm thinkin' about how I should leave here without you
But you taught me to be free and I'm trying hard to be
But this lump in my throat when you speak her name, it won't leave easily
Every time that I think I'm safe I get burned
Every time I try to think it through it never works
Every time I try to love I get hurt
Why can't you love me?
Why can't you love me?
But you taught me to be free and I'm trying hard to be
But this lump in my throat when you speak her name, it won't leave me
