the mention of your name

time goes by and every single tear

it must have well run dry

and the lonely nights

become a strange accepted way

and the years go past

just like the old song says

the pain with time has healed

it couldn't last

but oh a friend like a fool

mentions your name

sunny days

drunken nights

you smile and say

it's alright

but oh the cold cold rain

at the mention of your name

forgive me please

if i shrug my shoulders

when i put my friend at ease

as i get older

it's not that i don't feel colder than before

oh i've become so good at hiding

what i feel without confiding

it's still the same

darling still the same

at the mention of your name
