I actually listened to this song again. At first I thought it was about a love/ex-boyfriend. But then reading the lyrics I thought of something else. It reminded me of this episode of Roswell I just watched where Liz's grandmother was dying and she asked Max to bring her back but he couldn't but he allowed her to say good bye to her. It made me think that maybe this person is in a coma and she wants them to come back to her again. But then the last part made me think of the Notebook. It's like who ever she is singing to is sick and can't remember her and she just wants them to say her name so that she knows everything will be alright.

"Please say my name Remember who i am You will find me in the world of yesterday You drift away again Too far from where I am When you ask me who I am"

"Say my name These colors come alive In your heart and in your mind I cross the borders of time Leaving today behind to be with you again"

These two parts made me think of that. Like in the Notebook he is telling her the story of how they fell in love but she doesn't remember and it's like WT is saying remember who she is and say her name and let her know that you remember everything. And that since the person has Alzhiermer's they can't remember anything and they are too far away from them because they can't remember anything. And how she says crossing the borders of time, it's like saying I'm remembering everything and I want to be with you no matter what. It really just reminds me of the Notebook how all they want is that spilt second where they will remember everything they went through to be with each other. Or not even a relationship wise but just remembering a time in someone's life that is important that might not be able to remember. My grandpa had Alzhiemer and it's like you just want them to be how they were before they got sick.
