I was nervous, feeling worthless. She was bright as the sun on the surface. We were
dancing, holding hands when I leaned in for a kiss on the lips. And out of nowhere, she
says “Stop right there. I’ve got a lot of possibilities I need to prepare for the future. And
I’m not sure that I can see a man in the picture.” But all I think about is how you shut
me down. Not trying to find a hotel room. I’ve got no ring to offer you. Just wanna know
your name. Don’t want a one-night-stand and I’m not trying to walk you down the aisle.
Just wanna know your name. She’s a rockstar. She was so far out of reach but I knew I
could reach her heart. On the surface, she was perfect. Hard to read but to me she was
worth it. Back at my place, she says “Give me space. I’ve got a lot of inner demons that
I’m needing to face. And this breakthrough that I went through, brought me back to the
fact I don’t need you.” But all I think about is how you shut me down. If it’s all the same
to you, if it’s just a game to you, I’m so tired of playing when I always play the fool. If it’s
all the same to you, if it’s just a game to you, I’m so tired of waiting just to stay the same.
A little more each day I wish you knew. I’d never let you down and I thought you’d know
by now. I wanna know your name.
