The song marks the first of two collaborations between herself and the Mumford & Sons superstar.
The track was loosely inspired by Daphne du Maurier’s 1938 Gothic novel Rebecca.
“‘Say My Name In Your Sleep’ is a song about both haunting and being haunted,” she said in a statement of the song’s meaning.
“It’s about keeping a constant eye on the past – on the person you loved – whilst being old enough and grown enough to know it wasn’t right, and to wish them all the best. It’s about having a tiny, secret sliver of your heart that still, deep down, hopes and prays they think of you – just a little, just when it’s dark, just when they hear that song on the radio. It’s about letting go, begrudgingly, but letting your shadow linger a moment too long.”
“It was one of the first songs Marcus and I wrote together in Real World Studios in deep winter – there was something magical and spooky in the air there, and I think it definitely got translated into this song,” she added.
