The Walls Keep Saying Your Name

Sophie Ellis-Bextor

I've tried to visualise the moment

When you have finally left my house

But though your body left long ago

I find your spirit hangs around

I talk to you to make you leave me

But before the words have left my mouth

A hundred whispers come from the walls

And nothing I say makes it stop



Let me be

Insanity Doesn't flatter me

Let me be

I'm hearing things that you won't believe



I can't sleep when the walls keep saying your name

I can't sleep when the walls keep saying your name

Go from me and let me slumber again

I can't sleep when the walls keep saying your name



I walk around with all the lights on

When it is past the midnight hour

Oh how can such a fleeting love affair

Still behold me in its power



Let me be

Insanity doesn't flatter me

Let me be

I'm hearing things you won't believe



Well it was ok for a while

Your attention made me smile

But now you're driven wild and I can't handle it

Your passion is a curse

And I seem to make things worse

I'm gonna leave you girl, leave you girl



Let me be insanity doesn't flatter me

Let me be I'm hearing things you won't believe

Round my head incessantly possessing me

Let me be

Let me be
