I Won't Tell No One Your Name

And even though the moment's passed me by

I still can't turn away

'Cause all the dreams you never thought you'd lose

Get tossed along the way

The letters that you never meant to send

Get lost and thrown away



And now we've grown up orphans I'd never knew their names

We don't belong to no one thats 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'll 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?



You grew up way too fast now there's nothing to believe

With re-runs all become our history

A tired song keeps playin' on a tired radio

And I won't tell no one your name

I won't tell 'em your name, yeah, yeah

And I won't tell 'em your name

Oh, oh, I won't tell em your name



I think about you all the time

But I don't need the same

It's lonely where you are, come back down

I won't tell 'em your name
