soulpepper theatre company - a name means a lot lyrics
[rose]
a name means a lot
i think
and thinking is what i do
a name is the answer to the question:
who are you? who are you?
you have to know your answers true
and i’m nine years old, almost ten
and nine’s not young, it’s not
and since i turned nine, almost ten
i’ve started to think a lot
and i’ve been feeling so strange
though i don’t know what’s changed
cause life isn’t simple like i thought it was
cause i’ve got this question
going round and around in my mind
it’s a big question – it’s who am i?
and i can’t say my name til i know that
to say it would be like, a lie
i can’t say this is me
what you get’s what you see
when i’m spinning with questions inside
like why am i a little girl?
and where am i a little girl?
and when am i a little girl?
and which little girl am i?
which little girl named –?
a name means a lot
i think
and i’ve thought this through and through
you can’t just go and say it cause you’re asked to
it’s full of the you-ness of you
you have to know your answer’s true
so, what’s in a name?
i know
that that’s been asked before
it’s hard to explain, i know
but i’ll give it a go:
a name is the first gift that you ever get
a name’s your little piece of the alphabet
it’s the first thing you give someone you’ve never met
cause a stranger’s just a friend who’s name you don’t know yet
a name is the t-tle and tune of your song
a name is the sound of your heart beating strong
yeah, a name is like a ticket
and when you give it you’re admitted
to a world where you belong
so what’s wrong?
it’s these questions
and they won’t let my mind be still
and i’ve got no answers
but someday i will
see, i think if i think even harder
i’ll think of the answers and then
i will say my name, shout it
no, sing it so loud
cause i know that i’ll know who i am
yes, a name means a lot
i think
and thinking is what i do
a name is the answer to the question:
who are you? who are you?
i have to know my answers true
