J.a.k. - Share My Name Lyrics

Three thousand miles ago
Our love made like The Chimes
We played adult in college suits
Our pockets poor our hearts aligned

But our fashion's out of style
You're still damn far away
This flight will be my last
Where the present's not today

New York separation
Seattle desolation
I need someone else
To share my name

I see the future clear
A broken dame in tears
A pilot man in full-on pain
The winds of time consuming years

Now I'm at her yellow door
My girl, she's just inside
The time is now to walk
But I cannot move forward

Imagine now the hummingbird
Who flies to stay alive
That's what I must be
To escape my alibi

I pick myself up off the ground
And fight my steps inside
My past is in the window pane
My future full of hard disdain

To bring us back to love
Old me dreams must die
But I am not afraid now

'Cause songs begin again
Stiffened souls will bend
And someday, we'll see
Who we're supposed to be

Seattle proclamation
New York transformation
I needed someone else
To share my name

I needed someone else to share my name
