I Practiced Your Name Before You Were Born lyrics
I practiced saying your name in the mirrorLong before you ever heard it for yourselfI whispered it into the walls of your roomBefore there was a crib or books on the shelfI wanted to know how it would feel on my tongueTo call for you and have you turn aroundI practiced your name before you were bornSaid it softly in the dark when the house was asleepI practiced your name before you were bornLike a prayer I needed to learn how to keepAnd the first time I said it out loud to your faceAnd you looked at me like you had always knownI practiced your name before you were bornAnd it finally felt completely like homeI tried out the nicknames one by oneI thought about the names that you'd grow intoI thought about the first day someone else would call youAnd how strange it would be to share you with the worldI wanted it to fit you like it was made for youI wanted every version of you to own itI practiced your name before you were bornSaid it softly in the dark when the house was asleepI practiced your name before you were bornLike a prayer I needed to learn how to keepAnd the first time I said it out loud to your faceAnd you looked at me like you had always knownI practiced your name before you were bornAnd it finally felt completely like homeNow I call it across the yardNow I call it down the hallAnd every single time I say itI hear the night I was just practicingAnd how far we've comeSince thenYour name, your nameMy favorite wordYour name
