Select language to translate this lyric
A rollercoaster rises up beside the road
Like someoneâs signature in red, green, and gold
Scrawled on a mountain range
It calls you
Its metal wheeze and sawdust knees
Left uncollected in your memories
Salty skin, I kissed it
You were named in a hurry, honey
Eight months before you were born
Your fatherâs plane waiting
To take him to the Viet Nam War
If itâs a girl let her be Tandy
After the story that we read in class
True dreamers, it didnât last
The secret lives our parents live
Before we even breathe
Some clues surface when they go
But we never really know
We never really know
But we never really know
Strong to be loved, itâs there in your memory
The story is your name, the story is your name
Strong to be loved, itâs there in your memory
The story is your name, the story is your name
Strong to be loved, itâs there in your memory
The story is your name, the story is your name
Strong to be loved, itâs there in your memory
The story is your name, the story is your name
