When the World Knows Your Name

Down the road
At the bar we sit
Were a friendship
My longing must resist
But up the stairs
Up into my heart
Were the lovers
Who never have the chance
And I say, whats needed
Are some memories
Without pain
Its hard when the world
Knows your name
Was it just last week?
He was your only flame
And the wind
On our street calls his name
But you could try me
Theres so much more to say
And our neighbors
Let them whisper
All day
The jukebox says
Our moment has arrived
Leave out all the history
For tonight
Lets make the memories
The dreamers only claim
But its hard
When the world
Knows your name
The jukebox says
Our moment has arrived
Leave out all the history
For tonight
Lets make the memories
The dreamers only claim
But its hard
When the world
Knows your name
