Vanessa Lee Carlton (born August 16, 1980 in Milford, Pennsylvania) is an American pop and rock singer, songwriter and pianist best known for the hit song "A Thousand Miles", a single from her platinum-selling debut album Be Not Nobody (2002). Although it is widely respected by her many fans, the follow up to this album, Harmonium, did not fare as well, selling only 179,000 copies. Her third album, tentatively titled "Heroes and Thieves," will be released mid to late 2007.

Say You Lyrics

Vanessa Carlton

My heart, your hands, gentle my friend
Break me neatly, numb me sweetly
Say you would, say you could
Say youd come and stop the rain
Say youd try and hold me tight
And you just give me away
Make me high on lullabies
A melody for me to sway
Say you would, say you could
And you dont do anything
Come down heavy, try and steady
Precious ladies, love you, love me...
::chorus::
Hold my head up to the lies that you feed me
Ill fall under the spell you cast as you let me down
Say you would, say you could
Say youd come and stop the rain
Say youd try and hold me tight
And you just give me away
Make me high on lullabies
A melody for me to sway
Make me high on lullabies a melody for me to sway
::chorus::
Say youd come and stop the rain...
