Name (Goo Goo Dolls Cover)
Name (Goo Goo Dolls Cover) Lyrics & Chords
This is an extremely emotional song written by the John Rzeznik, lead singer of the group Goo Goo Dolls. His parents died when he was young and his sisters brought him up. One of the common interpretations of this song is that it reflects on his childhood.
My wife is very fond of this song and hence it goes out to her.
Lyrics:
And even though the moment’s passed me by
I still cant turn away
I saw the dreams you never thought you’d lose
Tossed along the way
Letters that you never meant to send
Lost and thrown away
And now we are grown up orphans that never knew their names
We dont belong to no one thats a shame
You could hide beside me
Maybe for a while
And I won’t tell no one your name…
And I won’t tell your name
Scars are souvenirs you’ll never lose
Past is never far
Did you lose yourself somewhere out there?
Did you get to be a star?
Don’t it make you sad to know that life
Is more than who we are?
We grew up way too fast
Now there’s nothing to believe
And re-runs all become our history
A tired song keeps playin on a tired radio
And I won’t tell no one your name….
And I won’t tell your name
I won’t tell your name….I won’t tell your name
I think about you all the time
I don’t need the same….
It’s lonely where you are, come back down
And I won’t tell your name

Wonderfulllll….George.
Indeed an emotional and soulful rendition.
5/5 from me too George.
It’s in my favorites and it touched my heart and soul.
Like Meera had referred to in one of your original compositions that you featured in that your voice definitely has that longing for the beloved factor coming in almost every sentimental song.
You are with your BELOVED THIS DAY I know with Jesus Christ’s grace but you surely know the pain to long for a BELOVED SOULMATE and which comes through your voice so well that is where your renditions become more than special when it comes to these kind of numbers.
Keep it up man….I would want you to be part of my DREAM and VISION….to serve mankind being part of God’s noble cause….Please check out my message to divine sister NEHA in her song ‘She will be Loved (Maroon 5 Cover)’ where I have shared my DREAM & VISION.
Take Care divine soul,
Keep the faith always,
Peace be with you,
God Bless You and your beloved souls….

I expect more frequent uploads from you man….
