Story Behind The Song
From my first original album, ?Silk?. I felt like I needed to re-do this one, as the song had matured so much on stage. From a dream, and a woman who hid from everyone, even herself.

Lyrics
The waves are crashing on the shore at sunrise
Your feet are leaving marks along the beach
You see her hair it's waving in the morning breeze
She's walking in the distance out of reach
You still can hear her breathing from the night before
And feel the soft sensation of her touch
You borrowed moments, noone owns her anymore
And now your life will never be the same
Who knows her name
Who knows her name
She's skipping in the water as the tide recedes
You hear her laughter echo on the foam
You just can't seem to catch her and you call for her
You're reaching out your hand to guide her home
But now she cannot hear you as the waves explode
She's deep within her own world all alone
And you will never reach her, on that lonely road
Her indifference makes you wonder why you came
Who knows her name
Who knows her name
Just when you think she's gone forever she returns
You awaken with her eyes on yours and wide
Just for a moment all the walls have disappeared
And you see the little frightened girl inside
She shrugs the moment off, and leaves without a sound
Then softly sighs as she goes out the door
She's like the ocean breeze, noone can tie her down
And memories of her all that remain
Who knows her name
Who knows her name
