Lyrics
[Verse 1]
And even though the moment passed me by
I still can't turn away
'Cause all the dreams you never thought you'd lose
Get tossed along the way
Letters that you never meant to send
Get lost and thrown away
[Verse 2]
Now we're grown up orphans
That never knew their names
We don't belong to no one
That's a shame
But you could hide beside me
Maybe for a while
And I won't tell no one your name
And I won't tell 'em your name
[Verse 3]
When scars are souvenirs you never lose
The past is never far
And did you lose yourself somewhere out there?
Did you get to be a star?
And don't it make you sad to know
That life is more than who we are?
[Verse 4]
You grew up way too fast
Now there's nothing to believe
When reruns all become our history
A tired song keeps playing on the tired radio
And I won't tell no one your name
And I won't tell 'em your name
[Verse 5]
Yeah, yeah
Won't tell 'em your name
No, uh huh
I won't tell 'em your name
[Verse 6]
I think about you all the time
And I don't need the same
It's lonely where you are
Come back down
And I won't tell them your name
