Goo Goo Dolls - Name (Lyrics) - A Boy Named Goo (1995)

[scottdemarco]

And even though the moment passed me by
I still can't turn away
Cuz all the dreams you never thought you'd lose
Got tossed along the way
And letters that you never meant to send
Got lost or thrown away

And now we're grown up orphans
And 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

And scars are souvenirs you never lose
The past is never far
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

We grew up way too fast
And now there's nothing to believe
And reruns all become our history
A tired song keeps playing on a tired radio
And I won't tell no one your name
And I won't tell 'em your name
I won't tell em' your name
Oooh, oooh, oooh
I won't tell em' your name
Ow!

I think about you all the time
But I don't need the same
It's lonely where you are
Come back down
And I won't tell 'em your name

This song popped up on my feed. My now ex and I just ended things on a good note. I still love her deeply and this song is hitting even deeper. Such beautiful lyrics. I hope she does well and moves on. She deserves it.

And now we're grown-up orphans.
And never knew their names.
We don't belong to no one, That's a shame!

That gets me every time.
