Lyrics:

A man opens his eyes under the bridge where he;s been sleeping ~ to keep himself from weeping ~ he gets up and goes on his way ~ a woman late for work crosses his path and barely misses ~ she curses his existence ~ leans on the horn and goes on her way ~

Living worlds apart ~what could they ever have in common ~ started life with so much promise ~ different choices on the way ~ feeling desolate and distant ~ losing hope with every instant ~ if there's happiness they've missed it ~ in this endless game ~

We are of one name, one name ~ we are of one name ~ we want the same things ~ we need the same things ~ we are of one name, one name ~ we are of one name ~ we want the same things ~ same things ~

A father near the end ~ wishes he'd been there for his children ~ he prays that they'll forgive him ~ but the words are still hard to say ~ his daughter feel regret ~ for choosing work over a family ~ she wanted one so badly ~ for very choice there's a price to pay ~

Grown so far apart ~ they should have everything in common ~ started out with so much promise ~ different choices on the way ~ she just needed his attention ~ he had no time for affection ~ now they're struggling for redemption ~ knowing they're to blame ~

We are of one name ~ we are of one name ~ we are of one name ~ we want the same things ~ same things
