Lyrics:
Say my name, So I will know you're back, You are here again for a while. Oh let us share the memories That only we can share together. Tell me about the days before I was born How we were as children.
You touch my hand, As colors come alive In your heart and in your mind. I cross the borders of time Leaving today behind To be with you again.
We breath the air Do you remember How you used to touch my hair? You're not aware, Your hands keep still, You just don't know that I am here. It hurts too much. I pray now that soon You're released to where you belong.
You touch my hand, As colors come alive In your heart and in your mind. I cross the borders of time Leaving today behind To be with you again.
Please say my name, (Do I know you) Remember who I am You will find me in the world of yesterday. You drift away again Too far from where I am When you ask me who I am.
Say my name, As colors come alive, In your heart and in your mind I cross the borders of time Leaving today behind To be with you again
Say my name...
I love it. It's really sad
Does anyone know the story behind it? Or am I going to have to find it on my own?

It's about Alzheimer's disease, and the people left behind. At least, that's what most people think. It does fit though.
I love the bit after the bridge, when it goes "please say my name" and you can hear some words being spoken really quietly. And the breath at the start.

Yeah, I figured it was about Alzheimer's...but I wasn't sure who wrote the lyrics and if they had a relative or something that had/has it. I don't know.
But, yeah. This song is one of my favorites.

It is. And Sharon sounds so emotional in it. She throws out feelings to make it sound beautiful and it works so well

Say My Name is my most favorite song by WT. It simply has so much meaning even beyond what is may or may not have been intended to have. *Goes to listen*

You'd be more impressed if you knew someone with Alzheimer's, I'm sure
My grandmother has Alzheimer's. Pretty painful to those around her

It is very beautiful, but sad too. I wish they would perform it live, though.
