The Name I Whisper

How can you love me
when it's his name I whisper

All those nights you held me
you must have wondered
if it was him I was thinking of

All those times we laughed
you must have wondered

All the silent stares
you must have wondered

When you ask me if I had seen him
and I said "yes"
you must have wondered  

And when I told you
I had compared
you must have wondered

What you did not know
was that last meeting
was to let him go
because
it was you that I was thinking of

And when you let me go
I had to wonder

Now when he holds me
he must wonder
if it's you I'm thinking of

How can he love me
when it's your name I whisper
