Lyrics:
And even though the moment passed me by
I still can't turn away
'Cause all the dreams you never thought you'd lose
Tossed along the way
Letters that you never meant to send
Get lost or thrown away
And now we're grown-up orphans
That never knew their names
We don't belong to no one
That's 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 'em your name
Scars are souvenirs you never lose
The past is never far
Did you lose yourself somewhere out there?
Did you get to be a star?
And don't it make you sad to know that life
Is more than who we are?
You grew up way too fast
And now there's nothing to believe
And reruns all become our history
A tired song keeps playing on a tired radio
And I won't tell no one your name
And I won't tell 'em your name
I won't tell 'em your name
I won't tell 'em your name
I think about you all the time
But I don't need the same
It's lonely where you are
Come back down
And I won't tell 'em your name

I’ll never understand how the Goo Goo Dolls made such blatantly romantic soft rock songs without even a hint of cheese, corniness, or cringe. Their work has aged better than most.

[@badgasaurus4211]

I think it is the strength of the lyrics and the hard rock nature of the vocals. Lends a sincerity to the whole thing.

Have you ever wondered where your soul goes after this life? We are sinners despite any tiny sins we commit like lying, bad thoughts, or cussing. It doesn't even matter how many good deeds we do because one little sin is bad enough already. We cannot make it up to heaven on our own will. Our God, Jesus Christ, decided to come down to Earth as a SINLESS human and sacrificed His life for our sins. Then He resurrected three days later! Therefore if you believe in your heart that Jesus Christ is your Savior, you'll definitely have eternal life. Your existence is proof that God is real. Consider this: A creation like you have a Creator. Only in the Bible does it mention that God is the Creator of mankind. God is the only one who can create your body, your organs, your features, your blood, and fingerprints. That is why nobody has the same finger prints nor DNA as you. YOU ARE UNIQUE THANKS TO OUR GOD, JESUS CHRIST! Have a great day!

Realize that you are a sinner who CAN'T SAVE YOURSELF from going to the lake of fire (forever) 🔥 based on your good deeds, your own philosophy, and other religions. 2. Realize that you need to believe in your heart ❤️ that ONLY Jesus Christ died for your sins. If you shall confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and shall believe in your heart ❤️ that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart ❤️ man believe unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. Congratulations! 🎊 👏 After this life, you're on your way to heaven forever! ⬆️💯🥳

When we listened to the radio in our cars. When we bought the CD at the store, or music resale store. When we liked the band we heard on the radio. When we'd go to the concerts of the bands we'd listen to on the radio. We might hear the band members on Loveline or an MTV segment, but we didn't have instant access to the bands and band members via KZbin and Wikipedia. I fell in love with a girl to this song, my first heartbreak. As an 80s baby and 90s high-schooler, there are no words to make people understand what it was like compared to nowadays (and nowadays isn't bad, just different).

In 1995, this song came out after my oldest brother passed away. This reminds me of him in so many ways. He was hard of hearing in both ears. Tormented and bullied all his life. Back when he was younger, there were only special schools for mentally challenged children. He was not accepted into these schools for the simple fact that he was okay except for his hearing. Fast forward to his late teens. My father was an abusive alcoholic. Used to beat on him something awful. David turned to alcohol and then eventually, drugs, to numb the pain of his past. Long story short, the pain was too much for him to live with. "If it's lonely where you are, come back down, and I won't tell them your Name..." MISS AND LOVE YOU FOREVER DAB 2/20/59 - 4/3/95

I'm turning 45 this year, and this song has been with me since middle school. still puts me in a good mood when I listen to this song ...

[@small_fries7573]

You are a special and unique person. Your life & soul matter. Your life is very short compared to eternity. Therefore if you want to spend eternity on heaven after your life here on earth 🌎, you should believe in your heart ❤️ that Jesus Christ is your Savior. If you don't, you will miss going to heaven and end up in the lake of fire. It is terrible so I beg you to make the only correct decision for God to allow you to go to heaven. Jesus Christ is the only way to eternal life. 🙏 Have a nice day. God does love ❤️ you.

[@small_fries7573]

For ALL have sinned and fallen short of God's glory. That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 1. Admit you are a sinner. 2. Just simply 😍 believe in your heart ❤️ that Jesus Christ is your Savior for your sins. *If you do, you will go to heaven.

[@PrinceAsmodeus]

This song for some reason makes me remember the times I told my parents “I can’t wait to be a grown-up” I remember it verbatim that they would always respond to me by saying “Please Don’t be in a rush to be grown, it’s not all you think it is”.... Well.... I’ll be damned. Another life lesson that they(My parents) were right about. What I wouldn’t give to go back, but “We grew up way too fast now there’s nothing to believe and re-runs all become our history”

[@InflatablePlane]

Gods. Kicking myself here for not enjoying my childhood more back then. My folks said the same exact words to me and I tell every kid I run into who says they can't wait to grow up the same exact thing too

[@SocialEXperimented]

Listen to Goo goo dolls for the first time with this song, and i knew straight away that they are going to be big.

[@dnb97531]

The part of the song that speaks to me “Grew up way to fast now theirs nothing to believe and re-runs have become are history” to me this is what life has become kids don’t hang out side anymore, tv social media and video games are their friends now! It’s called social media but all it does is isolate you from real human interaction. Bonds to real friends are better than followers !

[@ApostleTaylor]

I wish the world would have just stayed stuck in 1999 and just looped...Goo Goo Dolls, Matchbox Twenty, and all the countless other artists actually made REAL music...Even Rap was better then...

I'm not sure why but this song reminds me of something that I can never forget. My grandmother was going through some old photos and there was a lovely photo of a young happy couple from the war. They weren't my relatives so I asked who they were and she stared sadly and tore up the picture. She said no one would remember them and it was obviously a painful memory. Eventually I found out he was in the RAF and they'd been courting, she got pregnant and he was killed in action. She committed suicide shortly after. I had a horrible feeling that I'd just seen the last memories of the two extinguished. I have no idea what their names were, but they looked so happy. This song makes me think of them even though I didn't know them.

[@small_fries7573]

The Lord Jesus Christ became the Savior of sinners (all humans) by coming down from Heaven & dying on the 🪵 wooden cross for our sins. God raised Him from the dead, and Jesus is now a living Savior with God in heaven. But don't lose hope. Anyone can be saved from their sins and from going to hell in two easy, peasy steps: 1. Realize that you are a sinner who CAN'T SAVE YOURSELF from going to the lake of fire (forever) 🔥 based on your good deeds, your own philosophy, and other religions. 2. Realize that you need to believe in your heart ❤️ that ONLY Jesus Christ died for your sins. If you shall confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and shall believe in your heart ❤️ that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart ❤️ man believe unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. Congratulations! 🎊 👏 After this life, you're on your way to heaven forever! ⬆️💯🥳

this song is so sad and beautiful in the same time. the lyric and music is sooo powerful touching my heart. I heard this song many times, never got bored, and tears fell without realizing it. this should be one of the greatest songs in the world ever, yet very underated

[@hollihughes2274]

I loved them growing up. I was born in 1977. And I loved them when they hit the scene. But the lyrics hit harder now at almost 46. And makes it so much better.

The 90's don't touch the 80's by a longshot, 90's music overall was pretty dreadful with grunge and alternative. The 70's and 80's were the best!!

And even though the moment passed me by I still can't turn away 'Cause all the dreams you never thought you'd lose Got tossed along the way And letters that you never meant to send Get lost or thrown away And now we're grown up orphans That never knew their names We don't belong to no one That's a shame If you could hide beside me Maybe for a while And I won't tell no one your name And I won't tell 'em your name And scars are souvenirs you never lose The past is never far Did you lose yourself somewhere out there Did you get to be a star And don't it make you sad to know that life Is more than who we are We grew up way too fast And now there's nothing to believe And reruns all become our history A tired song keeps playing on a tired radio And I won't tell no one your name And I won't tell 'em your name I won't tell 'em your name Mmm, mmm, mmm I won't tell 'em your name, ow I think about you all the time But I don't need the same It's lonely where you are, come back down And I won't tell 'em your name

I relate to you there. This was the very first song that I can recall playing on repeat when I was a child. It quickly became my favorite song, and it is still my favorite song to this day. However, for all of those years that I listened to not only them but this specific song, it was not until I got to see them live back in September of 2011 and Johnny explained the meaning behind the song, that I realized that this was my life..... I too am an Orphan, though at the time I first heard this song I still had my Dad, he died 2 years later....... like for that song to come full circle like that over 20 years later was just mind blowing. The instrumentals of this song always cut to my core and so for as many times as I have listened to it I just never focused on the lyrics so much..... it's just crazy.
