Whats Your Name
Moon Halo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hey what's your name
I see behind that veil
Although you try so hard to deny
There's more to this than meets the eye

There's more to this than meets the eye
So can you just identify and even try to justify
And meet the eye of me
There's more to this than meets the eye
So can you just please testify and even try to pacify
And meet the eye of me

Hey what's your name
It seems that nothing's changed
There's more to this than meets the eye...

Can you show me who you really are
Can you tell me how it got this far
Can you be the only one to blame
And can you start by giving me your name

Hey what's your name
You sound a little strange
There's more to this than meets the eye
So can you just identify and even try to justify
And meet the eye of me
There's more to this than meets the eye
So can you just please testify and even try to pacify
And meet the eye of me

Can you show me who you really are
Can you tell me how it got this far




Can you be the only one to blame
And can you start by giving me your name
