Gordon Lightfoot
Whisper My Name
[Verse 1]
Travel with me if you choose
Into a land of notions
Through the ruins of yesteryear
Set your mind in motion
Be beside me win or lose
I will not forsake thee

[Refrain]
I must do, so must you
Now will you go with me?

[Verse 2]
I will build a home for you
To keep you warm each winter
Lemon lilies at your door
To give you in September
I will take you as you stand
I promise to defend thee

[Refrain]
I must do, so must you
Now will you go with me?

[Bridge]
Whisper my name as you pass through my life
Whisper my name when you fall
I'm just a dusty old memory you trust
I'll be close by when you call
[Verse 3]
Give and take ain't always so
Seeing is believing
Down and out, don't stop the show
Staying is not leaving
What we say ain't always so
But I won't deceive thee

[Refrain]
I must do, so must you
Now will you go with me?

[Bridge]
Talk to me, run to me, whisper my name
Don't waste your love making friends
We've both had enough of that wonderful stuff
It's too easy to sin

[Verse 1]
Travel with me if you choose
Into a land of notions
Through the ruins of yesteryear
Set your mind in motion
Be beside me win or lose
I will not forsake thee
[Refrain]
I must do, so must you
Now will you go with me?

[Outro]
Travel with me if you choose
I promise to protect thee
I must do, so must you
Now will you go with me?
Now will you go with me?
Now will you go with me?
