lyrics

Do you know My Name ?  

Under the bridge he came
 The brim of his hat, winding ‘round his name 
He wandered into our street
Caring not of the danger he could meet.

I have come down from the hill
 I have come down while the day is still 
And I watched your wisdom grow
You see, you are not alone
Do you know my name?

  I watched you from afar 
And I saw the anger growing in your heart 
And I know what she said 
And I know that you wished that you were dead

I have come down from the hill 
I have come down while the day is still 
And I would ease your pain
But some will still remain
Do you know my name?

Ah – Take me away 
I still feel the pain 
Alone every day 
Is this the only way?

I have come down from the hill 
I have come down while the day is still 
And I watched your wisdom grow
You see, you are not alone
Do you know my name?
