lyrics

She awoke and didn't know where she was
A pale sky and four white stars, that's all she ever saw
Turned over, went back to sleep
The best idea she'd had for weeks

Rising up moving out through the world
In the park with no one else, she talks to the trees
And Solitude walks on her own
Finds a space and makes it home

Tell me now what’s in a name? You spend your life with that
Who would call somebody this? Depends on where you’re at
Is it right to lay the blame? No one can ever know
Her feelings hurt behind the show Come on it’s time to go

Wears a flag, she doesn't know where it's from
Keeps the cold out of her. the day can seem so long
Her Cadillac waits at the door
But no one's in the driving seat

Talks to me, she’s telling me everything
She doesn’t like to be alone, her name can bring her down
She’s lonely, takes me by the hand
Says “Stay with me, don’t ever leave”

Tell me now what’s in a name? You spend your life with that
Who would call somebody this? Depends on where you’re at
Is it right to lay the blame? No one can ever know
Her feelings hurt behind the show Come on it’s time to go
